      Tks jimmie! It helps having two flights of stairs in the house, here in the islands! Been going up and down them a million times a day, it seems... with builders working at the top of the house! Sometimes I forget to count them even!

              Quite a couple of globetrotters! How cool that you finished climbs on the same day!

              I've gotta decide where to climb next. Will be counting only actual stairs I do, without upping the count with the stepper, as I want to shake up my exercise routine in the morning instead for a while. Need to ring the changes a little. Will still be climbing and counting and avoiding lifts (elevators) though... just a little slower.
