gecko

fat gecko

A fat and exotic looking gecko I spotted pathside while climbing in the Grampians. He sat long enough for a photo, then something in my precariously balanced pack fell to the ground, and he ran away. Not to be disloyal to my geckoes, but he did look very pretty.

Washington DC update – Still no word on plane tickets, so not sure when I’m going.
Weather update – Hot. My weather pixie has actually stripped down to a singlet. Jumping in a pool tonight.
Woody update – Construction hasn’t started yet.
Weird behaviour update – Saw a lady walking down Rathdown St in Carlton, wearing black one-piece swimmers and a bright pink towel. This was not an area where you’d usually see people walking around in bathing attire. It was not a particularly hot day. It was odd.

good old days at the mill

Bryden at the Mill.

Bryden bouldering at the Mill. hopefully all the rumours are true, and we’ll have new bouldering areas opening up close to the city. the loss of the mill followed by the burning of vic ranges has left a bit of a gap in the melbourne gym climbing world.

(meanwhile i’ve been busy incorporating all of my old photo sections into the site. soon there’ll be a nice shiny climbing link on the sidebar. however the next/previous page links at the bottom of the page keep refusing to load at the bottom of the page, unless you refresh)

geek much

climber

a photo taken during a bouldering session around this time last year. meanwhile i’m having great fun fiddling around with the site. geek. not entirely sure what i’m going to end up doing with it, but it’s fun playing. and having to resolve silly design issues like the fact that up until i implemented wordpress i never used post titles. meh. (actually, i’m really not sure what to do about it. i can’t really go back and give everything a title. maybe i just ignore the issue and keep posting until all of the title-less posts disappear off the front page, that sounds like a valid ‘problem, what problem?’ sort of approach)
