Ben and Krissy: End of the Summer

Rumney one last time...
With Krissy having a two week break from school we decided we would head to NH one last time!
On Aug 26 we drove to New Brunswick with Ben of the Smizzles and Andrea. After a huge amount of home made food we left for NH. Scott, Ben Q., and Jess would meet up with us the following day.

Our first day climbing was like we never left the place. We warmed up on the usual circuit of routes at Bonsai (Masterpiece(10a), Centerpiece(10d), and Social Outcast(12a/b)). Yes you read that right, Krissy now warms up on 12's!!!

Moments and Events:
-Craig tricking the others into thingking coyotes were attacking, sending everyone running for weapons

-Krissy sitting in a piece of cake Scott left for her on her chair

-Down climbing from a ledge/boulder at Waimea, Ben Q. drops his pack and it rolls down the hill, then Scooter does the same. Craig, who sees this happen asks if any of the other climbers on the ledge would like Ben to give them a hand getting their packs down.

-Andrea locks her keys in her car and Ben B. and Ben S. magruber them out with a clothes hanger and screw driver, after which Ben S. lets out a string of profanities as a group of children walk by.

-Craig's Baptism song when getting in the river.

-Lighter fluid fire ball surprises while people are sleeping in a chair by the fire
