SETTLED IN.

     AFTER NEARLY TWO MONTHS I NOW FEEL COMFORTABLE BACK IN THE EASTERN PART OF THIS COUNTRY.  I HAVE FOUND ENOUGH WORK TO SUFFICE FOR NOW AND I AM FORTUNATE ENOUGH THAT IT ALLOWS A FAIR BIT OF FREE TIME. THIS TIME I HAVE BEEN USING TO REENGAGE MYSELF IN ROCK CLIMBING. I AM VERY THOUROULY ENJOYING THE TIME SPENT WANDERING THE WOODS LOOKING FOR NEW AND EXITING LINES. I AM CURRENTLY WORKING A PROJECT IN THE SHENANDOAH PARK. ON A BACKPACK TRIP LAST WEEKEND I DISCOVERED AN ABSURD AMOUNT OF ROCK THAT I MUST GO CLIMB. AS FOR RUNNING, AFTER NEARLY 3 MONTHS I HAVE FINALLY HAD A PRODUCTIVE AND ENJOYABLE JOURNEY UP THE LOCAL MOUNTAIN. ITS BEEN A LONG ROAD, BUT IM EXCITED FOR MORE MOUNTAIN RUNS I HAVE TO REMEMBER TO TAKE IT EASY THOUGH. WE ARE ALSO PLANNING A CAVING TRIP THIS COMING WEEKEND TO WEST VIRGINIA. I IMAGINE THIS WILL BE ALOT OF FUN. BY THE WAY, SUMMER IS ON THE WAY AND IM SO EXCITED I CAN HARDLY CONTAIN MY ENTHUSIASM. TRYING TO WORK NOW SO SUMMER CAN BE  FREE FOR THE FUN AND ENJOYABLE ASPECTS OF LIFE.
