"So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past." - The Great Gatsby
I
just finished this book on Sunday night. I hadn't read it since
probably some point in high school. I'm sure back then I failed to
really comprehend the meaning. My concern was more likely along the
lines of, "What do I have to do to not fail this assignment?" :-)
Stories, thoughts and reflections from my life.
- Hi, my name is Andy.
- I'm a climber, skier, hiker, and biker...among other things. I believe that communing with the outdoors can give us incredible insight into our lives, build friendships that last a lifetime, and open our eyes to the larger world around us. This is my blog. Welcome.

Reflections on the past year of climbing
In reflecting on this past year of climbing I know that it has had a rather profound impact on me, both as a climber and in my personal life. This year has seen me go from a fairly confident 5.7/5.8 climber to a 5.10b climber, 3 full grades above what I was previously climbing when at my limit. But there's something I've realized the past year that I feel I ought to bring out and share here.
