Caliiiiii!!!!!!!

So right now, I'm enjoying the wonderful weather or California... sorta. 
I plan to, but today, my sister and I journeyed to the wonderful indoor land of Mesa Rim climbing gym. Ohhhh, that rhymes. =)
Don't think a vacation would stop us from climbing. :P 
So anyway, one of our friends told us about this place, and we went. 
And MAN was it HUGE. We looked on the website and it said you can do anything there from climb, to get acupuncture. It's kind of awesome.
So my sister and I went, and at first, was it scary! 
I mean, we climb three times a week usually at a gym that has 25 foot walls, but this one had walls that were 55 feet!
My first time up one, I literally whispered to myself,
"just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming" 
No joke. I was that scared. 
But the more I did it, the easier it got. Believe it or not, it was actually kind of nice being up there.
They also had the BEST bouldering. Those walls were high, around 20 or 25 feet, and that was pretty nerve racking considering when you boulder, there's no rope. Just you.
At the top of the bouldering wall, you could climb up and over, and then walk down this cool path. So, I went to climb over the little ledge, and in order to do that, I decided it would be a brilliant idea to log roll over. Well, when you climb, you use chalk, and there was chalk. 
And the next thing I knew, I was a snow man. 
Seriously, the guy who worked there even asked me, he goes,
"Did  you, like, get in a fight with your chalk bag?" 
It was that bad. 
Well, bye!!
