A challenging morning with the Wednesday Walkers group yesterday. We did Black Rock, but instead of the usual climb to the first outcropping, we hiked the entire ridgeline. I’d only done that once before but from the opposite direction. What was a crazy downhill then became a rock climbing event this time around. I think more than one of us was thinking “never again” before it was done. There were a few falls along the way for some members of our group, but fortunately no injuries. Hurt pride doesn’t count.
To the pictures then:
It was something different. Perhaps a once-in-a-lifetime excursion. Of course, with my fading memory, I may not know any better next time.
After the hike, I had to get ready for dart league. We won our match 11-2 and the team captain of our opponent was whining about us taking it “too seriously”. I bit my lip, but my thought was if you ain’t gonna play to win, why play at all? Punk.
Went to Pearl’s place after darts. I haven’t given up quite yet. She even came to see me at 0100 after closing. It was nice to have her with me again. We’ll see how long it lasts.
“I bit my lip, but my thought was if you ain’t gonna play to win, why play at all? Punk.”
I thought it was all about the fun and splitting the prize money. No?
I suspect the opponent was simply covering for having sucked.
Actually, this was dart league, not a tourney. And wins and losses matter in the standings. When I’m just playing one-on-one I generally don’t give a shit.
I stand corrected!
Looks like that was a most excellent walk! Great views!!
