      Threadjack -- and this is only my second post here! lol

      Jimmie, hopefully it is easier to get a virtual passport than it is to get a real one.

        i've never had to get a passport but i do understand it takes some time. i'll try to live up to that time frame. lolol
        i have the coolest idea but i don't know if i can make it work. i'll let you know.

              great to have you tammy!

              i figured the same thing when i moved into a two story house. why not make a challenge! so i asked my fellow goalies sal and sadie and with their help this whole thing came about.

              make sure ya'll report in when you have a climb done so we can give proper pats on the backs!

                the idea that fg gave me concerned the passports that we need to travel to all these buildings and mountains.

                translation: we have a graphic to show you are a participant in this challenge and it's good for PR.

                if any of you would like me to make a passport for you, send me a pic in a pm and i'll take care of it for you.

                this is mine.....


                and this is fg's

                          they did turn out kinda cute, didn't they?

                          for anyone who does not have a pic to submit, i can still supply the passport. maybe i can add the ADBB logo to it instead of the picture. i'll try that.

                          i'm approaching 1/3 of the way up everest.

                          SAL! YOU'RE OVER HALF WAY ON BAD BOY KILIMANJARO!

                          edit:
                          i added a graphic to the first post of this thread that anyone in the challenge can use to show their participation and support of this challenge. i'll leave it here too.

                                Yes... they are too cute for words! Very cool indeed.

                                Re Kilimanjaro... Had my brother over from England just before Easter. He's now gone back, but this morning I got an email from him... here's a quote:
                                Quote:
                                Rats. I can't go near any steps now without thinking of Kilimanjaro! Had to stop myself counting as I came into the office this morning (4.2 flights). Thanks a bunch!
                                Unquote.

                                He's a sarkie one, that's for sure...but seems the counting is catching! Made me chuckle to think of him totting up the steps...I told him you'd made certificates for people climbing real life!
