Bad Weather, Moles, and Allergies

The weather has not been cooperating with us lately. It is either raining or too hot...oh well. So we are off to Switzerland in the next couple of days.

This morning we woke up to a mole digging under our tent - he had a whole tunnel system built.

Krissy was scared he was going to dig through the bottom of the tent - so we moved it.

We did manage to get some climbing in yesterday. Krissy had a bleausard compliment her on her climbing after she completed a line at Bas Cuvier (C'est beau, ce n'est pas facile - or something to that effect). Then she proceeded to climb Le Croix de Fer - a 7B - in like two tries! She doesn't think it is a 7B...I climbed it and it is pretty hard - pockets - monos for big fingers. Then she WORKED a Frites (5C+) and could not do it...ahh font.

I managed to climb nothing yesterday. I had one of the worst days of climbing ever. Near the end of the day I did start feeling a little better and fell of the last move of L'abbe Resina (7C/C+) in the heat.

Today we slept in and are going to climb later weather permitting.

random stuff:
krissy had a bad allergy attack last night/this morning - "slept" with tissue in her nose - a la Molly

moles dig fast!

bugs like to get in back packs

Ben is acting, or should I say Sounding more like John.

Notre Dame is big - we happened upon it randomly when looking for chalk
