We are four friends who live in Calgary, AB. We decided that between our busy schedules of toting our kids from here to there and being superstar wives to our husbands we needed to discover what was around us. So we all decided to embark on a monthly voyage of exploring our world to improve our lives, to have a few laughs, and most times both. We hope you enjoy our adventure in self discovery and learning what life has to offer for you and your family and maybe we can inspire you to Try It!

Indoor What?....Okay I'll Try-it!!
Indoor climbing was a whole new world. We challenged ourselves for sure with this pick. Jennie and Reen climbed that wall like nothing....me well let's say I prefer to have both feet on the ground. I went, I climbed (sort of), I watched. This event was not my style but I really admire the people that do it. It really takes a lot of strength to scurry up a wall...it looks so easy when you see some do it...but don't be fooled it is TOUGH!!!! We had a great instructor named Dan, Dan the climbing man. Has a nice ring to it right! He really was a great teacher and in his words he says he climbs a lot! We attended our class at the Calgary Climbing Center. It really has a lot to offer if you are into climbing and my experience with the staff, was great. They seem very knowledgeable and eager to help. They have a great beginner class for $40 (must book in advance) it is chalk full of info and you are welcome to stay there and practice as long as you like after class. The question is will I climb again. My answer is not unless I have to. I did learn some cool knots that will come in handy at the lake though! One thing that I will warn you about is that the harness's are tight and show everything...I mean everything...and I couldn't help but notice that all males look huge...really huge! Hahaha...trust me I was not the only one that noticed this!!!!~Tasha~
