Reaching

This month marks the one year anniversary of Joe's second and final shoulder surgery. With a planned Monday off just one day after our The North Face race success, we set out to celebrate Joe's fully recovered rotator cuffs, by engaging them in rock climbing at the local indoor climbing gym, AdRock (Adventure Rock).  It was a perfect afternoon - rainy, cold and dreary outside, quiet and unpopulated inside (this place is nuts on weekends and evening). We taxed our fingers and forearms climbing lines on moderate walls - attempts to do harder routes on the 35ft walls were not successful.  This was a great way to acknowledge the progress of the past year of hard work and diligence in recovery!
