Have I mentioned the Rocks?

Hanging out at Second Rule, getting ready to climb
A random cave with a bunch of animal bones - something that looked pelvis-y, maybe dog sized, and lots of smaller bones too.
Z and N sizing up Winter Harvest
This was truly unposed, and at the time I didn't even realize Nick and Z were "standing" on Charlie's feet! Wes checking either food hours or weather. Possibly both.
Had a super fun time at Reed's Creek! Everyone climbed the 5.7 Second Rule (Zara led it, Charlie cleaned it) and then a combo of Zara and Nick lead Winter Harvest, which included some extreme MacGyvering of running the stick clip up to Nick who was 50 or so feet in the air, but apprently they've been there, done that and have already perfected this technique and it just seemed awesomely improv'd. Charlie slayed the top rope version, with yours truly belaying, and while Wes would have liked a crack at it, it was getting late and people were getting hungry. We ended up grabbing a smorgasbord of random but real food at the Sheetz in Petersburg, because even on a Saturday nothing is open after 8pm out here. A good day off was had by all.
