    "There's nothing better to me than waking up on a big wall and knowing that I've got a full day of climbing ahead of me,
    and a day after that and a day after that. Life becomes so simple"

    Climbing No. 146

    I was a middle school counselor at Kate Collins Middle School in Waynesboro, Virginia for seven years.  I started  as one of the new school counselors at the new Skyline Middle School in Harrisonburg in July of 08.  My wife Nicole and I will celebrated our 6th anniversary on June 28th.  Our son Nathaniel turned 16th mon today, June 12th.  Man, how time flies. 

    My main hobby are ranting about politics, rock climbing and mountain biking, but since getting married and having a child, the family has been my main focus.  Life is good.

    My first love is my wonderful wife, Nicole. But climbing and biking take a close second.(Hope that gets me off the hook.)  Living in Harrisonburg, I am only 25 minutes from miles and miles of steep and fast single track in George Washington National Forest. The world cup downhill and the Hoo-Ha race are held at nearby Massanutten Mountain. I see that local Jerimiah Bishop won this years race!  No problems with crowds here, it is a rare occasion that I have met another biker on the trail.

     Neal Singletary after awesome weekend climbing in NC.

    "This has been a delicious day, the kind whose taste lingers long after it ends, whose memory even months later activates all your senses. Good food, good conversation, spectacular scenery, and vivid experiences. The hot sun to warm your back, a cool river to escape into, and the luxury to enjoy them both. Simple pleasures.  Trails to explore, mountains to climb, vistas to view, and good companions to share them with you. A day, like the surroundings, that will remain forever in time."
