Sometimes in life you get to experience one of these really rare moments when you find yourself in a place and in a time you would never have imagined, doing something you’d have never thought. If someone would have told me I’d spend a summer in Moab trying a futuristic boulder crack problem, I would never have believed him. Yet it has been what I’ve lived. [1]
