    Your new collage looks very nice, Jimmie, and that hat is definitely you! You need to take off the mountain boots, though- it would look better with these:

        Wow! These buildings are really getting a trampling! Congrats to ALL who've topped them lately!

        I'm still puffing up the never ending Mont Blanc... but at least the half way mark is a thing of the past!

        Where are you these days Susan (mountain-wise, of course)?

                Got most of the Petronas towers done this weekend. I only have 23 more flights to go, so I'll definately finished them today and then start on the CN tower.

                Jimmie, how do you do your siggy collage? Do you use Powerpoint or Word to paste them together?

                      i am not going to log in here each time i climb upwards but i wanted you to know that i have started kilimanjaro today. i took a helicopter flight to the foot hills and camped overnight in the rainforest.
                      i got an early start with a good breakfast and then packed my gear. i have my warm fuzzy boots and my parka for the higher elevations.

                          sanne, if you knew how many times i've had to calculate the lost pounds and calories and who did how many of what, it would make your hair stand on end.
                          even using a spreadsheet i've gotten numbers wrong.

                          hey, your doing really good on your other challenges, too!

                            Helloooo-o-o-o-o-o-, fellow climbers! Not lost up here, but did think I'd be at the top of Mont Blanc by now. I seem to have been bettered by the weather, and am trying to pull myself out of a deep drift right now at 1816 flights up, just over 200 from the summit... Brrrrrr



                            A robin redbreast would be a welcome sight right now. Mid-February isn't the best time to go mountain climbing, LOL.

                            Jimmie48, it must feel great to be at basecamp in the rainforest right now!
