Whereby my friends try to kill me
I thought that the email that came through regarding Sunday’s group hike was simply a misspelling: “Tomorrow’s Wall”.
My friends claimed that they tried to convey that this was not an easy hike. However, the email that read: “lots of ups and downs on this one” did not accurately clarify that up and downs did not mean simply walking up and down hills, but clambering over boulders that had been sheared from rock walls formed during the last ice age.
As a recovering lymie, I’ve been working to rebuild my strength, by digging trenches, climbing ladders, and carting firewood. But still, it takes time, when, for the last year+, you’ve resembled a piece of linguine that’s been stuck to the wall far too long.
Four hours of climbing over rocks was just a bit over the top.
