I can't quite explalin why but I laugh all the time with Alyssa. I don't think anyone else understands. We went camping last year, just the two of us. We tried to find these slot canyons to hike down and it took us forever. We finally did find it but we got to a part in the canyon that was really difficult. There was a big drop of about 8 feet and a pool of water at the bottom. We had to go around on the side and shinny in this little crack area. When we were coming back, the only way to get out of the crack was to do this splits move you see Alyssa demonstrating here.
I was laughing really hard the whole time she was going back. I included the picture of me doing the splits move just so you don't think there was any other possible way of getting out of that crack without falling into the pool of water.
We camped at the famous Clyde Eagle Nest in the San Rafael swell in southern Utah. To get there you have to have a tough car like a Land Rover LR3 to drive way up on the slick rock to a depression that functions as our "nest". Close to the Nest there is an enormous cliff down into Black Dragon Canyon. Because of my exposure to Clyde rituals, I thought we should probably throw rocks off the cliff. The cliff is in a semi circle so we got far enough apart to be able to see the ground underneath each other so we could see the rocks hit. This big one we had to toss off together.
One of the rocks I threw Alyssa said got really close to the fence. We could see that some of the rocks turned into powder so the next day we drove down into the bottom of the canyon to check out what was left of the rocks. We discovered that one of the rocks I threw had indeed hit the fence and broken it. Ooops.
All of our weekend activities were extremely amusing and would have been no matter who I was with. But I guarantee you that I laughed more with Alyssa that I would have with anyone else.
