Eiger 1

For my next few posts I am going to quote Heirich Harrer from his book The White Spider.

"Climbers are not only men of action, they are also matter-of-fact people. Such reflections are only to be explained by the first upsurge of joy at one's recaptured life; they won't stand up to sober judgement. The miracle and the mercy were none of nauture's fashioning nor the mountains, but were the result of man's will to do the right thing even in moments of direst peril. Who can say we were merely lucky?

Jurassic 5


Yesterday me and some friends departed for a journey to Babylon. Babylon in this instance isnt the Holy Land per se but the Gypsy Tea Room. Jurassic 5 was playing there and I have been dying to see them for several years. I couldnt have asked for a better group of people to spend time with.
It was the best concert I have ever been to.
Check out their web-site.
