We have a little bit of a home gym at home, like a little climbing garage.

And so the girls can, you know, play on the wall whenever they want to, but there's certainly never any pressure to do anything.

And you went to Cal?

So you were climbing up the back of it, which is anything but, uh, well, actually I was mostly traversing the bottom of it.

Um, there's tons of like, basically you can contour the whole base of the rock.

And so you can climb for, you know, a couple hundred feet basically without touching the ground.

So you just go back and forth doing laps and.

Yeah.

I mean, from where I was living at Berkeley, there's only like a 30 minute walk to Indian Rock or something.

So I basically wasn't going to class.

I was just strolling to Indian Rock and traversing the wall back and forth.

And and then that's why I dropped out after one year at Berkeley.

It's kind of like I don't know why I'm at university if I'm not actually.

Actually, it's more complicated than that because that year I got into the youth worlds, like an international thing.

And so I was going to take the semester off to go to worlds and travel and climb a little bit.

And so now I've just taken, you know, whatever, like 35 semesters off or something.

No, I think after some point they were like, you're done.

Yeah, I think they closed that.

Yeah.

I mean, it's just hard to know with that stuff, though, because obviously for most people, they probably should get an education and get a job of some kind.
