Break from the Internets: I went climbing
I’ve spent significantly less time staring at a computer screen the past two weekends. That’s because I’ve been taking part in an outdoor rock-climbing course through the Spokane Mountaineers.
My forearms and fingertips hurt.
In honor of my belief that we all need to play and sometimes rope and rock feel nicer under your fingers than a keyboard, here’s a video from brightcove.tv.
Synopsis: A guy with a camera walks the precarious Camino del Rey in Spain en route to El Chorro climbing area. This will give you goosebumps. Notice, too, how the cameraman doesn’t bother clipping into the safety line like so many of the people he passes.
Update: If you’re not seeing the video, brightcove.tv appears to be undergoing renovations. Please check back later.
