            i won't put up a year end total till the year is ended susan! keep climbing!!!

            jack's flights have slowed considerable since he lost his job. he is still counting them here at the house though and is not too far from finishing mount snowdon. i on the other hand, have been slacking royally. i've had a hurt back that was not co-operating with me climbing stairs. i'll try to get some in today.

              Hey there! It's been awhile since I've checked in, but I'm still climbing. Not as often as I should be, but I'm getting there.

              Since I was last here, I've finished climbing Mont Blanc and Mount Kilimanjaro. I'm currently working on Mount Everest and have climbed 42,960/58,070.

                    Thru 31st Dec. logged 206 of 2028 flights up Mont Blanc...FYI, for the tally record.

                    Wow, KATE! Don't be so scarce when you finish Mt. Everest! You missed 2 well deserved congrats by keeping your head in the clouds when you topped your last two peaks! Good thing you at least dropped off some info for the yearbook!

                    Congratulations!!!

                        Well it seems there's a little gaggle of us all in the "200s" of Mont Blanc. How nice! Seems an awful long way to the top though!

                        Kate!!!! Awesome climbing of Everest! And everyone else is doing great too!

                              Ummmm... Y'all are in trouble.... When I posted that 206 figure I forgot to add the flights together as I keep subtotals noted every few days, usually. Here's what I just caught, when I went to add on my Jan 1-2 tally:

                              Mont Blanc, France 30,420 steps 2,028 flights (12/9-10=18 )(12th-18th=148 )(19th-31st=206 )(1/1-1/2=57 )


                              Soooo... end of 2006 was 372 flights! (206+148+18 ), and now I'm ahead of you, at 372 + 57!!! = 429!!

                              You've got your work cut out for ya!!
