After a quick visit to Rifle, Colorado to see friends, get some climbing out of the system, and bolt a super bad-ass new line, Colette and I both prepped up for another departure. It was great returning to the USA and we have now been here for 2 weeks. The jet-lag is gone, I am still going through a bit of reverse-culture-shock, and noticing lots of little things about our country when compared to the Europe. I love both completely equal and really get a kick out of being able to compare both EU and US. Mainly, Europe being so old, traditional and deeply rooted in history compared to the U.S., which is the contrary… so young, driven, hungry, fast, and equipped to a T. The only way you can realize these things is to physically compare them and this is through the experience of going there and returning. I love traveling for this aspect and I have been getting a lot of it lately.
