        congrats on the finished mountain, erin! you being sick and all, it's good to see you got this climb finished!

        sanne, a paper and pen would work. how about poker chips? or toothpicks?
        how about paper money from an old game that you don't play anymore or you can evey buy some fake coins in the toy section of the store. dollar general probably has them and they won't cost but a buck or two at the most.

            OK, time to update my buildings climbed: Finished Clifton bridge late Friday, Big Ben finished on Saturday, and Forth Rail Bridge today. What I really like about climbing the buildings is that they don't take very long & when I'm having a stressful day at the lab, I can say that I've climbed to the top of something.

                        I've been told that those dark beers such as Guinness were pretty low in carbs compared to other types of beers. I don't know the exact numbers though.

                        Yesterday, I finished BT Tower, and today I've started Blackpool Tower. I'll probably finish it tomorrow.
