Cannon Beach /cliff of death

Good morning! Today's tale is about Andy and the cliff of death!


The story begins with my roommate and me at the conference center, going for a short walk down Cannon Beach, Oregon. My roommate was really into fitness. He was one of those guys you like because he's friendly, but as a guy, you hate him because he's built like a brick wall. I was skinny, still tall, but scrawny.


I had no upper body strength. Blame Bob for that. Bob was very self-confident. Anything he thought of doing, he could do. I used to spar with him in the gym, and he was teaching me jiu-jitsu. More accurately, you should have seen me flailing around like a rag doll.


So Bob and I were traveling down the beach, exploring as I like to do, and he came along. I don't know why he did because he would rather be pumping iron in some gym. When all of a sudden, we were walking past this—you know, a 50-foot cliff above us made of dirt and rocks covered with dirt. It was very high up, but it was a shortcut home. 


So bob says to me, we should climb up here over the cliff, face and then weekend proceed home. I was thinking, Bob, that's really not a good idea. I don't want to die truthfully. But being a guy, I can be outdone I couldn't show fear because I was a manly man. 


No what's the time to climb up. To say as frayed was quite the understatement but it got worse as I hey clime, halfway up over outcroppings. Now, because of what I climbed up and the arrangement of it, I could not climb down even if I want to f I fell, I break my neck.

So what was I thinking at this point  ?  That I was a f****** idiot. I was living at the beach. Happy Awful beach with friends, a girlfriend and I shows

To go hiking with my met, meet head friend.  I thought about what an awesome summer it had been, and there is gonna die.
