Reflections...

I had to work a GradFest last night...
Bunch of High School Seniors just released from @12 years of lessons from our "Church of Reason"
I can remember mine... not having a clue what was next though I had gotten a good job months before.
Though its been some years, I still don't let age (trips around the Sun) cloud the bigger picture.
It was fun to talk with them as they tried out climbing...
Made me think of how nieve I must have looked, but also maybe how mature I was for that time...

It was kind of a surreal day since I had to be prepared to work till 5am
Was surprised to see almost all 300 climb our rockwall!
Which helped to keep us busy and less tired :-)
But it is crazy working "the graveyard shift"...
Driving home at 5:30am looked just like the freeway at 8:30pm!
Would have been cooler to be riding through a sleepy hollow...

Got home in time for a pre-dawn surf... but not enough swell :-(
