"Let me tell you what I think about bicycling. I think it has done more to emancipate women than anything else in the world. It gives women a feeling of freedom and self-reliance. I stand and rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a wheel.. the picture of free, untrammeled womanhood." ~ Susan B. Anthony

Everest or BUST

Its been a life long dream of my husband to take his family to Mt. Everest.  Well, beginning tomorrow morning at 8:00am, that dream will come true.

I am a wee bit nervous.  I don't know how I will do with the  high altitude.  We have medication, but....  how will I do with the 14 days of hiking? Well, if I can survive the Tour of Friendship, I am not really THAT worried.  People say you loose weight with the hiking, loss of appitite, and vegetarian cuisine (they don't haul meat up the mountain)...really looking forward to that!  Gaining weight from the hormones is NOT settling w/ me.

we'll see.....
