Blowing Rock

Many of you know, Devin has taken up rock-climbing with a good friend of his from church. They call it their "stress relieving outlet"!

These are a few pics they took this past weekend at
Blowing Rock (North Carolina). I don't know about you.... but it looks like stress achieving, not stress relieving to me!!

For you rock-climbing enthusiasts, these are level
5.12b climbs.

Edited to add: They were not wearing gear or helmets at this level because they were not very far off the ground! Don't panic - they do wear harnesses, belts, clips, and more! These were nothing more than some pictures they took during some early practice climbs and they spotted eachother.




"I've got to climb THAT!?!?!"

"Too late to turn back now! How much farther?"



"Don't look down!!"

Nice! Devin is a fellow adventurer! Skydiving is my stress release. Most people don't understand that, but there's nothing more calming in the world to me...
