                look at you at base camp and beyond! i'll meet you tomorrow and then we'll wait for sal, if that's okay.
                are you going to do some of the smaller climbs while sticking to base camp?

                    okay, i'm up with you susan. 240 for everest. i'm thinking we should wait to hear from sal before trekking any further up.

                          Hiya everyone....! Sorry... been awol for the last week or so. Work (groans). Just dashing in to say I'm still snowed under, but hope to at least find time to pick up this challenge again. I finished my short climb and then stopped counting... so am certainly good to start up Everest again from base camp if my sturdy fellow climbers are too. Nice to see you at base camp Susan!
                          Just say when you're ready Jimmie! Thank you both for waiting for me!

                            way to go sal! i wasn't sure how many flights you were going to get in but there you are base camp! susan [at last count] and i are at 240 flights. lets say the next base camp is at 350. that will get us all at the same place at the same time.

                            sound okay with y'all?
