Farewell, October {But Let's Keep Spooky Szn}

Sara and I, in true fashion, waited until the absolute last day of October to manifest our vision for spooky fall photos. The consequence was doing so in 37 degree temps, and walking away with matching sets of frozen fingers (which would later both sustain cooking-related injuries as a result of numbness. We're thriving).
 
I'm so thankful for this friend of mine, and for every unhinged idea that we bring to life.
Happy Spooky Szn, loves.

Halloween 2023

We celebrated our first Halloween in the new digs, so naturally we hosted a mini bash and invited a bunch of our favorite people over to hang. The gang came through, completed our house with spooky decorations, pizza, and drinks. It was the sweetest success we could have wanted for our first holiday-themed shindig. 

To top it off, Marcus and I made a last-minute appearance at the Miguel's Halloween party, which morphed into nearly an all-night event, complete of course with a mini hike the following day up to Natural Bridge. 



I can feel myself coming back to life, bit by bit. 
For the village around me, for the ways in which life is teaching me to act, react, and counteract, I will be forever grateful. This isn't where I thought I would be, but now that I'm here, I can't imagine anything else. ♥

Sean & Madison | 21 OCT 2023

Squid Squadders tie the knot!

Admittedly a departure from the norm, to see some of the usual suspects donning not just casual (aka non-climbing) wear yesterday, but the escalated formal wear. The versatility of climbers is not to be underestimated; this group cleans up quite well. Congratulations to you, Sean & Madison, and cheers to this next chapter of life together! 
I'm thankful for this group of people, for these friendships (*belaytionships, of course!), and for the beautiful wedding that we were able to experience to celebrate Sean and Madison. 

So much love ♥

Rocktoberfest 2023

PHEW, another Rocktoberfest in the books!  

Enjoy a little photo dump (41 of them, to be exact.. there are SO many more, but I digress): 

Previous Next
A million thanks to the RRGCC, and to the absolute phenomenal souls that I'm so fortunate to call my friends, for a weekend celebrating the climbing community and our little place in it.
