Usually to a couple of trees at the top. Always have more than one anchor. A belay at the bottom and you're set. Bouldering is a nice easy way to do some climbing without all the rope hassles. Just don't get carried away and get too high. Also always have a buddy and a crash pad. By the looks of the avatar you've got half that problem solved.
