Namaste my friends. I sit and write this entry from the majestic mountains of the Himalayas. My quest was to reach the Mount Everest Base Camp and climb over 18,000 feet to the view point peak of Kala Pathar. I guess from my pictures you can already figure out that I made it, but how I got there and what my body went through is the best part. As usual, it was no walk in the park; actually, it ...

Happy Turkey day
It's great to hear from you. I hope your staph is doing better and didn't bother you too much on your hike. Well, you are definetly quite the traveler. All that stuff, bathrooms (holes in the ground), tofu, cold, etc, you can keep. I'll blog about club med or a cruise or something. Anyway, have a wonderful Thanksgiving, you're in all our prayers, stay safe, and keep them comming. Pictures are unbelievable by the way.

Jealous...in a good way.
Hey Jeremy, Dude, I am so jealous. What an amazing trek to Everest base camp and back. Ruth will tell you that I have an unhealthy obsession with this amazing mountain and many of the epic stories that I've read of people that attempt to stand on top. So cool!!! Don't worry about your wordy blogs. We love reading them. Stay safe and continued success with your travels.

I stand (actually sit) in awe
I have been waiting on this blog and you didn't disappoint. I can't begin to express how much I wish I could have been along for this part of your trip. I should go ahead and throw all my adventureous pictures out after seeing these - they can't compare. The one with the tip of Everest "on fire" - well worth the 3.5 hrs wait. How did the climbing at 17,000 ft compare to our one-day 6,000 ft climb to Hurricane Pass in the Teton's? Enjoy the tofu and the handywork of our Creator.....
