Rock Climbing at Den Rock

Monday, Yorick and I went rock climbing at this awesome place in Andover , MA, called Den Rock. This place is one huge pile of rock that is known for having people climb it. When we got there, we were so looking forward to getting started, but someone else was already there climbing. Now this tends to be a bit of a problem. I don't wanna climb when someone else is climbing. I am not that great a climber. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy doing it, but sometimes I get real scared and freeze. If this was to happen again, I could hold up everyone else climbing. So both Yorick and I were hanging out at the base and started to climb a little. Sure enough, I was a little scared and froze. I think this was because I was thinking about it to much. If I hadn't thought about it all, I'm sure I would be just fine. But now I had an even bigger problem. I had to get down. Yorick cried and cried and cried. He felt my pain and tried to help me down. Eventually I did get down, and Yorick did help some. I am so glad that Yorick is there with me. I think that him and I will have to come back sometime again soon. School is going to start soon and I think it might keep most everyone away from Den Rock. It was a shame too! I really wanted to climb the huge rock. Maybe in a couple weeks when I come through the area again.
