We had a great time in Empire yesterday. My cousin Scot and his friend Matt, climbed the 450 ft. bluff ( Scot was climbing against his will). I just went down, and then the three of us walked about a mile south to North Bar, where we met up with Michelle, Drew and my Aunt Lynn. Scot, Matt and I started the descent down the bluff, and quickly made it to the bottom. The plan at this point, was that we would walk down to North Bar, and meet up with Drew, Michelle and Lynn. Apparently, Matt was not paying attention, when we went over this plan. My intention, was to stay at the bottom and swim for a while, as Matt and Scot braved the enormous sand dune. The both head off and climbed about 1/4 of the way up, where Scot decided he would rather relax and join me for a swim. Matt however, was determined to take the hill. So...we waited....and waited....saw him reach the top. Then we waited some more....and more...and 35 minutes or so had elapsed. Where could he be? Scot and I started to get concerned. We devised a plan B. I would now head down to North Bar, alone, and Scot would climb the hill to find Matt.
I am sure that when Scot began the climb, he had every intention of meeting Matt in the middle, catching him on the way back. What he did not know, was that Matt, was sitting in the parking lot....the whole time...waiting for the girls to show back up! He allegedly looked down after reaching the peak, and could not see us....MAYBE because we were 450ft away!
Scot summed it all up when he said " Matt, I am going to kill you"
Enjoy our pictures:)
