back from kentucky and now to california!

just got back from kentucky last monday. was there to climb at red river gorge with merrick. though it rained for the most of the weekend, we still managed to find a few dry routes due to its 'overhanging' wall. while i suck in endurance, i never managed to redpoint any of the eudurance routes. also, rrgcc.com hosted a dyno contest which merrick and i entered. i was surprised to make to the final five with the highest score. but in the final round, i couldn't manage to hold on to the sloper hold and wasn't able to get tie in with other four opponents. to break off the tie, they had to hang on to the board as long as they can without dropping. like i said earlier, i suck in endurance and wouldn't have probably won it. however; i surprised myself for making to the top 5. finally on monday, sun CAME and we climbed madly. i almost onsighted a 5.10a route on toproping, only to fall right by the last bolt which i believe was to be the crux of all. accck. anyway, i have to say that the weekend has been good to me. now, i'm flying out to CA tonight to attend a friend's wedding and also probably will extend my stay there as i'll be cleaning out my parents' fridge ;-) so expect to hear nada from me till i get back home next week.
