Synopsis "What Matters: Days at Potrero Chico, 2005-2007"
What happens when a late middle-aged lawyer decides to precipitously give up home and career and become a full time rock climbing bum, challenging the massive limestone cliffs of Potrero Chico in the Sierra Madres of Nuevo Leon? This series of essays and observations demonstrate that his transition kicked off a non-stop avalanche of peculiar perspectives and constituted the perfect antidote to boredom. Chapters include an essay about building a new climbing route up a 1,500-foot cliff, encounters with randomly selected fellow bus riders on a four day round the clock bus ride from central New York to Monterrey Mexico, coming to terms with a wild man/degenerate who reads Nietzsche in his tattered tent, and reflections upon the allure of shear terror. This year and a half adventure was simply the best imaginable way to get an observant guy to think and write about life from unique viewpoints and the topics chosen for his review are as unpredictable as the British weather.
