I have a couple questions:
1. I don't have anyone to go with yet. I guess for now I can just do bouldering at the gym, and maybe I'll meet someone there who can belay for me? Any recommendations on finding a partner?
2. The membership at my local gym is $350/year. What equipment will I need to buy on top of that (shoes, harness, etc.) and how much should that set me back?
3. I felt awesome when I came out of my first lesson yesterday because the instructor was giving me all kinds of praise. But I'm not sure if he was just trying to get my business! He said, "You're lying - there's no way this is your first time" and "Is there anything you can't climb?" I got all the climbs on my first try, never fell, and I did a 9.6 and a 9.7. So, is that good or was he just playing with me?
