Since the Bay Area Climbing group is focused mainly on SF and East Bay climbing, thought I'd put this out there as an alternative way for people from the South bay/SJ/Campbell/Sunnyvale/MTN View Areas to hook up and climb together. There are amazing places to go climbing in the south bay and north bay, indoor and outdoor. Planet granite has a beautiful facility in SF and Sunnyvale. Supposedly there are some new places popping up as well. Castle Rock and the Pinnacles are not far from here. The …

I started this group because I found that as I approached my late thirties and am now about to hit 41, (WOW!) girlfriends who are available to dance past bedtime to some infectious beats are challenging to find! Although every girl in this group will share a common love of dancing, this group is to provide a comfortable space for positive-minded women to come together, laugh, get to know one another, and make some real, honest-to-goodness friends-- whether we are dancing the night away at a live …

If you kitesurf / kiteboard you know it's one of the most addictive sports going. We kiters go to extreme lengths, spend loads of cash, put our personal relationships in peril, and travel ungodly distances in search the right kite experience. Entrepreneurs similarly risk their financial safety, put heavy stress on their personal lives, and travel a long road in search of that world changing opportunity. Kiters and Entrepreneurs, clearly, are cut from the same cloth. Any windy day at 3rd ave reve …
