An Evening with Dave at Rocky Top

OVERVIEW

~Dave~ aka climbing legend/my dad, is coming in town Friday to force me to go to the Third Year Ring Ceremony. If you don’t know what this is you’ll find out in a year or two, but for now all you need to know is that it will require me to wear heels for two hours. In retaliation for this insult, my dad will be forced out of his retirement to attend this Rocky Top trip with us. Dave may be staring down the barrel of 60 but friends sendiness knows no age, and I’m betting he’s going to out climb us all. Just a note that Rocky Top is all BOULDERING so no harnesses or belaying experience is necessary.

THE PLAN: Leave The Shack at 6:45, get there around 7 and climb until they close.

***Please sign the waiver before we go if you’ve never been to Rocky Top before.
