City of Rocks weekend

This past weekend we got out of town for some climbing at the City of Rocks, thanks to some master group organizing by Craig. We camped at the Breadloaves group site (somewhere around twenty-five of us) and took turns kid watching so everyone who wanted to could get on a few routes. Saturday night we did potluck style burritos. These were hands-down one of the tastiest camp meals I've ever had (and all I had to do was cook up some tortillas). We're typically so good about photos, but somehow we drove away with only a handful of Finn photos and not a single climbing shot. Although, I think this sparked an interest in both of us to want to get out climbing more. With that in mind, there should be upcoming photo opportunities.

Renae entertains Finn and Kaya with bubbles, bubbles, bubbles... "Hey, do you have your helmet?"
Finn thinking about climbing safely already.
Four other kids to play with and so much room to roam, what fun! Finn was all over the campsite. He'd wander off into the sagebrush or across the vacant parking lot, turn around to wave "bye" then continue to wander farther. He's definitely becoming more independent.

Sounds like fun! What a great idea to take turns kid watching. Love the pic of Finn with the helmets!
