                      WOO HOO for Jack too!!!

                      Jimmie... am not sure what to do next. I think I'll take a short break until my relatives leave on Wednesday and decide then. Will be back to climbing something late next week.

                            i thought it might be a good time to post some new numbers, since a Challengers Choice Award was achieved.


                            ~~~~~~~~NUMBERS YOU HELPED TO CREATE~~~~~~~~

                            We have completed 57376 steps on Virtual Mountains
                            We have completed 13889 steps on Virtual Buildings I
                            and 294 on Virtual Buildings 2
                            We have completed 297 steps towards Towers Masts & Chimneys
                            We have completed 3522 steps on Challengers Choice



                            In Total we have
                            75,378 total finished flights
                            at a rate of 15 steps per flight that equals

                            1,130,670 total steps climbed

                                How are you doing with Big Mountain Jimmie?

                                I rather liked the sound of the Millau Viaduct in France... a quickie at 150 flights.
