    Did you see who climbed Mount Everest?

    It was Jimmie and Sally!!!

    Congratulations!



    What's even more amazing is that they both reached the summit of Everest for the second time in the Pledging Flights Challenge!

    If you want to join them in climbing buildings, towers, mountains, masts and chimneys, this is the link to the challenge: PLEDGING FLIGHTS *** A Stair Climb Challenge
