Actually, I think that's right, because...
because I think I met my wife when I was 30, and that same year I switched from this van to the bigger van.
If you've seen the film Free Solo, I bought the ProMaster's Dodge.
I could stand up in my van finally, and I was like, I'm moving up in the world.
I can stand.
It's pretty exciting.
Yeah, so this, though, is the – I did three different build-outs of this van over the 10 years because the original one was super scrappy.
The second build was a little nicer, and then this was a pretty nice build that I had for, I don't know, five or six years or something.
Like, to her credit, my mom was always pretty supportive of the whole path thing.
I think, you know, I was kind of lucky that I did a lot of this when I was like young enough that it's all part of like your gap year.
Like, you know, it's like you're young and you're finding yourself.
And then I think there was enough sort of external validation that my family could at least look at it and be like, well, you seem to be good at this random thing, even though we don't get it and don't really know what you're doing.
But at least other people think you're good at it.
So keep doing your thing.
Yeah, it's all a little bit of everything.
But basically just being a, I mean, you know, like being a professional climber, quote unquote, some of it's free soloing, some of it's like speed climbing, some of it's just hard climbing, some of it's going on expeditions, doing new routes, like it's a little bit of everything.
That's climbing without a rope.
So climbing without protection, which is definitely what I'm most well known for now.
But in the context of professional climbing, I've done tons of other things in climbing.
Like most of the time you have a rope on, most of the time you're doing other sorts of things.
