buildering my house

Hey! Get off that brick work! Someone worked real hard to lay all those bricks, show some respect. hahaha (my parents have "coined" corners like that on there house too, used to climb on them like that before I was even a climber) :)

And you're conservative on the use of chalk there too, I would imagine. Beautiful fall colors around you, combined with the very sultry expression on your face for a nice photo..

You still have leaves on the trees where you live? Or was that pic taken awhile ago?

She's in N'Ash'ville, Tenn. where they apparently don't have winter, deep freezes, and of course, no ice climbing..Thus she continues with her outdoor fun in the nice weather.

Our fall was soooooo late. this was earlier this week... we had MAJOR heat. Earlier this week it was warm enough for t-shirt and shorts. then all of the sudden it got cold yesterday.... FINALLY. The leaves are slowly falling.. slowly...

Haha! Great stuff. I do that and my wife yells at me (seriously!).

She YELLS at you...really?!? Like what..."PED, QUIT CLIMBING ON THE HOUSE AND GET IN THE CAR...WE'RE GOING TO MOTHERS!" That??? ;)

..or the always 'get down before the neighbors see you and call the police'!

Nice pic. If only my apartment complex was brick, I would be set :)

"Need a Belay?"

Ash' is considering a full aid traverse, nailing up pins into the brick masonry as she goes. Just in case she goes west to do some long aid routes in The Valley.

man, good idea! i should put climbing holds around my house (and make them not noticable) and traverse my house for training! That'd be awesome!!!

Yeah, get brick color, eco-friendly ones that you can just glue up, since pounding into the mortar of the brick would me a real bad thing to do(no nailing pins, OK?) OR get some nice color matching chunks of rock from the Red and bring 'em home to glue up instead of plastic ones. Now how to cover that gap across the picture window without any shoe scuff marks on the glass....hmmmm,,,,,,,,

So, as the 10 inch snow finally falls here in Illinois, are you in Bad-GNash'ville still able to go out and boulder the house? I might have ice to climb in a few weeks if this keeps up here. This is worse than being a kid waiting for Santa to come on Christmas!
