Basketball season is coming and with the first few games starting the week of Nov. 7 it’s time to prepare.
Fleeting rays of light drench the SLUG garden in gold as the sun dips behind Forest Park.

Fingertips searching for a stable hold on the textured basalt, forearms cramping from the strain. As my body clings to the skeleton of a caldera, all I can think about is the sky. The updraft from the valley below carries the bubbling of familiar laughter and out of my peripheral vision, I see a prairie falcon riding the same gust of wind. I can’t help but think that this is the closest I will ever get to experiencing the world as it does. This is why I climb.

It was the end of another school day somewhere around 2010. I looked through the window, trying to spot my dad's big white truck, waiting patiently for him to come pick me up from school.
