Frank called, about a climb.

My family needed me to get away.

So I went.

Dark, windy afternoon.  We decided TRL.

Got to the top in 51 minutes.  (Actually I topped in 49.)

The summit was pretty windy so we dropped down below the first rocks to eat our snacks.

I practiced with my spotting scope for deer and enjoyed a thermos of coffee.

Sunset was SPECTACULAR.
