^ the gite in which nine fellow boulderers and i are currently staying
i have missed blogging dearly. upon arrival at this lovely place i was surprised with free wifi – a test of my resolution to remain on digital sabbatical. without access to internet i miss it hardly at all, but with it at my fingertips it calls to me to write and publish and share. i have resisted, waited, thus far, and have been hard at work, mentally (in continuing my summer reading) and physically (in bouldering, which is rock climbing on boulders with mats instead of ropes). here i take a breath, a slight dip into normality, before plunging back into the experience. ★
