i went rock climbing

this past weekend my friend colin and i were supposed to go hiking to these water falls with a couple other friends, however we got rained out. so we did the next best thing. rock climbing (inside)

colin was telling me the other day about how he likes to rock climb. and i thought to myself "how fun, and why have i not tried something like that?" and so sunday afternoon i did.

we went to vertical world in ballard, and i learned a few things.

1) i am not so good
2) i am not as afraid of heights as i thought i was
3) it is A LOT harder then it looks
4) i am not as in shape as i thought i was
5) it is fun and i will do it again

i think a couple times i scared colin. he said i was a bit to daring and he was sure i was going to fall and break something. all in all it was a great time, and i am glad i tried something new. maybe next time i will try rock climbing outside....maybe.

after rock climbing, i went to starbucks (sin i know, but the pumpkin spice latte has me hooked) and read for a few hours. then me and kristen and colin went to the 630 service at mars hill. when we got there we ran in to everyone from our community group, so we took up two rows. that was fun.

during the series of phillipians, mars hill is going to give back ground history of the people who wrote different hymns. this sunday they did a piece on come thou fount written by robert robinson. it was interesting to hear about his life and how he came to love jesus. learn more, and see the video here. i hope they do a piece on come ye sinners .
