Stunning! That's what my first views of California looked like; I am still amazed at the stark line that seemed to be drawn between Nevada and California to delineate the border. It's kind of like Colorado's gorgeousness continues in the western part of California, with a whole ****load of desolation and sand in between. :areyoucra

I'm not much of a hiker and me and a few mates failed miserably at following tracks in a national park. As you can see in the first picture (we climbed the hill to the right (approximately 750m at 25-40% gradient with 40kg on our backs) this isn't the place to fail at being a hiker. The second photo is one of me (not wearing a stupid hat) in the creek before the ascent. To get to the track up the hill we had to clamber through the creek (in the valley basin) for 3 hours which was painful.

Note to self: get better at reading maps and following a GPS

These pics were before we got sponsored for a gym. This was from a clinic I taught on "How to fight Southpaws." Which sucked, because I'm a southpaw. It was something I had to teach because one of our guys drew a southpaw, and southpaws are notorious for making you betray your instincts. Plus, for some reason, our cross is particularly powerful. I think its because it comes from the opposite side and you aren't used to receiving punishment on that side.

In the first pic, I'm teaching a standard four punch combo for countering southpaws. The key to beating the southpaw is moving against your instinct. He's going to circle right and pull you into his power hand, while moving away from yours. You have to counter that with your left to set him up for the combo.

In the second pic, I'm discussing why the hook follows the uppercut. I drilled this kid, in fact everyone, on this until it is so deep in their muscle memory that they don't know how to not throw that combo.
You see, the uppercut isn't there to KO the opponent, its to get the head up to expose it. What makes the uppercut dangerous, is it comes from outside your field of vision. If you are throwing the uppercut properly, you are torquing the body to line your opposite shoulder up with their head. You don't drop the hand (defense, telegraphing) and throw it straight off that torque. The best punch you have in your arsenal is your hook. Once the head is up, the body is now torqued the other way. Pivot the foot and throw that hook.

Oh well, I could talk shop all night, but I won't.

I can't believe I'm posting this. :eek: Matt and I just got back from Israel. (Matt's my husband; the man in the picture isn't Matt. It was the owner of this camel.) I just loved the grins on both the camel's and my faces. If I didn't know better, I'd swear the camel was laughing at me. The reason I look like **** is that our luggage was lost for the first third of the trip. I didn't have a single change of clothes, any make-up or even a toothbrush. I'm amazed to think I was even able to smile by the time this picture was taken. I'd just bought the caftan I'm wearing. It's a horrible picture, but what the heck...

Awww, Katzpur, you're adorable! Did that tether choke you a bit? The lovely lady holding the rope looks like she's pulling kind of tight.

...and you're beautiful. Your smile just lights up your face.

LOL I was gonna say something like, "Wow. Who's the gorgeous lady standing between you and the cutie?"

But that works.:p

It was on fire when I laid down on it.
Love the picture, Katzpur - and I'm very jealous of your trip to Israel!

Here's a picture of me, after scarfing down some of the best Italian food I've ever had, at a little outdoor cafe in Nuremburg, Germany a couple of weeks ago.

Good food, good wine, good company (my husband), and a great vacation! Life's good.

:biglaugh:I guess it was. Seriously, I was in such a foul mood that day (due to having been without any luggage for four days). I think this was the first time I'd smiled all day, and it just about broke my face. We were just getting back onto the bus when I spotted the camel. Being the animal-lover that I am, I got all excited and ran over to see if I could pet him. Before I knew what was happening, the camel's owner had hoisted me up on his back for a short ride. Then, right after I got off him, he (the camel, not the camel's owner :D) gave me a huge kiss. This picture was taken moments after the kiss.
