I have this terrible fear for loose gravel and every muscle in my body tightens making for a painful descent. I'm not sure there is enough Advil in the world to get me down. That was crazy, but I so understand the need to see if you still have it and the feeling of accomplishment. You two are awesome!!

The view from the saddle is drop dead gorgeous but OMG that looks like so much work and you aren’t even at the top. Can’t believe that selfie. Shouldn’t you be using two hands? I was thinking after all that Bobbie would have a full face grin. But then she’s probably thinking about ‘sliding’ back down. Oh boy hope those scrapes don’t irritate too much. Simply spectacular views from the top. Thanks for saving me the climb even though I know pictures are zero compared to actually being there in the sublime. I’m sorry but after that accomplishment I don’t think you can qualify as geezers. That’s for those of us of a ‘certain age’ who didn’t do it and probably can’t.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328866430156879312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4134981800236544647.post-5972813480090325652017-08-31T12:05:35.403-06:002017-08-31T12:05:35.403-06:00What a marvelous climb to the top of Mt.
