The cold front broke and the heat swept in. We headed out to the Happy boulders to try and catch some shade and try our luck at some of the classic lines of the Happies. There was more napping then climbing but in the end we bagged some good sends and called it a day. We retreated back to the cool breezy shade of our campsite next to the stream. We were so tired it was an early night.

This is what the lazy dog day afternoons during a summer's sunshinny daydream is all about really. Hitting up a nearby secret climbing spot (locals only) with the crew and laughing and pulling the day to a close. Good climbs, good conversations, good friends, and a $3 quick six (just make sure it stays cold). Yup summertime, this it what its all about.
