Preparations
I’m chilling in Milwaukee at my Dad’s this weekend. It’s nice to be back here. Nala, our enthusiastic 1 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback is happy to see me (as evidenced by the slobber marks on my glasses). Today, I went to Laacke and Joy’s, the ski and camping shop that my uncle runs so we have a super discount, to gather some gear for my trip. I am getting unbelievably excited. In a week and a half I’ll be heading to Wyoming, going into the mountains for a month with NOLS. So so soso excited. After that, we (being Anna, my dad, and myself) went to Adventure Rock, an indoor climbing gym. I haven’t climbed since Boulder’s in Madison. Or Camp Black Hawk, but that’s been forever and super short. My ankle’s and forearms are sore, but it was great. On the trip to NOLS, I’ll also learn (and actually do) climbing. So excited, did I mention that yet?
