One more before we go dark

I'm able to grab a wireless signal while sitting here on the porch at Mary's house, so I'll post once more before we disappear for the weekend and our drive back home. This is Nick hanging upside down in a bouldering room at the rock gym back home in Doylestown:



That photo has not been altered in any way! That is indeed my son standing on the ceiling of the room. It's hard to see in the picture, but there is a big grab handle hanging from the ceiling. Nick figured out that if he could plant his feet on the ceiling, he could grab that handle and "stand up" for a few seconds.

We went rock climbing last week while our friend Bethany was in town to visit. (This visit coincided with our bathroom repair adventure. C'est la vie.)

Here is Nick, right side up, doing his best Spider-Man impression:



Anna is learning to climb too:



Three guesses which of my kids is the most fearless on the rocks:







Chelsea and Maria even raced each other to the top:



I am not so fearless, but I like to climb a little:



We love family rock climbing!
