New Skills

Tom is home for a couple of weeks. He was delayed leaving Raglan and ended up coming by Halifax from Montreal. We were happy to see him and Lewie was eager to demonstrate his new skills learned while he was away. Lewie is in the junior climbing program in our local climbing gym and during this round of lessons he learned how to belay. He was so proud of himself when he first learned. I am very excited but initially was quite dubious as he is only small. The instructor reassured me that he is now old enough and responsible enough to belay for other people and that they have taught him how to and he passed the test and now has his very own belay License. We have been climbing a lot more since he did this as it now means he can belay for me when Tom is away. Lewie is very proud of himself and enjoyed offering to belay for his Dad.
