  • Re: PLEDGING FLIGHTS *** A Stair Climb Challenge

    do you realize that next month celebrates the 3 year anniversary of this challenge? the first post was made April 22nd, 2006, 02:02 PM. man, we've done alot of climbing since then! i think on the day of our anniversary, i'll post another update. with carole and cruisin adding so many finished climbs, our numbers are increasing steadily.

      Wow - congratulations to all of you who have been here from the beginning!! You must have gone enough steps to go around the world by now!! (if not further)

      I'm so glad no one decided to climb Mount Redoubt in Alaska since they are having ash spewing from the volcano!! I'm a long way from there in Toyko...be careful out there!!

          How many flights will get you around the world? Now that's something to think about... Perhaps there's a math wizard who could figure that out for, say, a particular meridian of circumnavigation, .....naaaaaaaaaahhhh!!

          I think base camp will be a good time for a nap.... not there yet... don't wait for me, though. I'm dragging a credenza, a switchboard, scanner, plotter, copier & fax along with my other gear, compliments of (former)coworkers as of Fri 13th.

              susan, you should get extra credit for carrying so much. this is all in addition to our boots, and thermal wear!

              i do plan on waiting for you. i can climb other things while waiting, i don't mind. i think sal is planning the same.

                  i certainly hope you are keeping tabs on what you climbed. when you reach the 297 mark, you'll have to list everything for me so i can chart it.
                  you certainly are addicted to this challenge!
