Headed for Boulder-ing
And now for something completely different....
Piece in this week's inPortland section (The Oregonian's Thursday metro magazine) on bouldering. Actually, a piece on The Circuit, which is all about bouldering. Nice people, very social. People there exuded fitness. Or, exuded activity. Lots of lean muscles hanging off fake rocks. I stood there in dress shoes, feeling like 200 lbs and 100 years old, as a student from Lewis & Clark encouraged me to climb the kids wall. In the spirit of participatory journalism, I did. Not. Climb.
But, it was fun anyhow. And, I used to live in a town called Boulder, so there's that.
