Spending quality time with my love child.

Shirley finishing the last of the beer before the return flight home & work. Submitted for TR.

A gift from a pissed off yellowjacket. Submitted for TR (Oct. 2006).

Blondie got tagged by (I’m guessing) a yellow jacket on her eyelid on the final day of our Dome nightmare. Compare this shot from Turkey Monster. This is for our TR (May 4th, 2008).

Ouchy ouch – banged my knee on something to the point of drawing blood (July 2008).

My brother, Shirley, & Haydar having lunch in Tieton River Gorge, WA (Aug. 2006).

Martin, Shirley and Haydar enjoying (liquid) breakfast in City Of Rocks (June 2006).

An artist's view of El Potrero Chico - drinking interrupted by some sport climbing...those are 32oz (~1L) bottles (Nov. 2011).

A cut professionally fixed with climbing tape.

27 hours of driving. Followed by nearly breaking ankle. Followed by 27 hours of driving home.

Where did my left elbow go?? An unexpected take-home gift from the Community Pillar route. Looks like a snake bite, feels like a broken elbow...for TR purposes (see here).

Shirley & Blondie resorting gear over some beer for the next desert climb (Nov. 2005).

While rapping off the second pitch of the day at City Of Rocks, I thought to myself: "whouldn't it be fun to jam that nut tool into my right eye!!??" Seemed like a great idea at the moment (Apr. 29, 2006). PS Ladies, sorry - I'm married!

Shirley immersing herself in local Greek beer…err, I mean culture after a climb in Meteora (Sept. 2008).
