Round Two ~ The Journal
http://itinerantsjournal.blogspot.com/2010/06/round-two.html
A clever, self-depreciatory blurb will go here as soon as I learn how to be self-depreciatory. Or clever. Friday, June 11, 2010. A few months back my buddy Jeff and I took a stab at summiting a little hill called J'bel Toubkal. We failed. Since I won't be going to Palestine, I have all of next week off to poke around in Morocco/Spain. Time for a rematch. Unfortunately, I think the snow will be gone as well, so it will be a little less epic. Oh well. Good to get out of Casa. Posted by Patrick Dewey.

A clever, self-depreciatory blurb will go here as soon as I learn how to be self-depreciatory. Or clever. Sunday, June 27, 2010. I had a class start-date pushed back and a college roommate flying in for a visit, so I helped myself to an extended vacation this week. Boring story short: Went to Fez on Wednesday afternoon, randomly bumped into two of the Brits I met climbing Toubkal, shared some shisha and managed to insert myself (and Samantha) into their plans to visit a big waterfall. Anyway, one of thei...
