Sea. To Sky.
Random thought: I’m thinking they need to line the space shuttle with the same stuff they use to make egg rolls. Seriously. Egg rolls. I can pick an egg roll up with my bare hands, and yet bite into it and find that it’s holding molten lava. I have burned holes through the roof of my mouth on those things. It’s like a culinary back draft. The minute you expose the inside of an egg roll to oxygen they burst into flames. They don’t fry those things in oil. They fry them in magma.
So anyway. Enough about egg rolls. I'm in Squamish, 35KM up the Sea to Sky Highway in Vancouver. Decided I needed a long weekend on the rock. I've gone from sea to sky to sea again, and weather permitting, back to sky tomorrow.
I love it here. The sun setting on Howe Sound, the trees, the waterfalls, the granite. the dark gunmetal water. Amazing. I have said it many times, but when the sun is shining, there is no place better than British Columbia. Now that I've arrived, I can all but guarantee, the sun will stop shining. Happens every time I show up to climb.
No matter right now. It's late. I'm tired. I'm off to bed. Rocks to climb tomorrow.
