I feel like a hamster. 8:34 pace on the TM. The windchill is -25+. We got more snow today. Not sure how much since the drift in our driveway is about 3 ft. high. I had it all cleared off, and now... (sigh). Ron took the 4-wheel drive today. Good thing: he is going to need it to get into the garage. Thank goodness tomorrow is Feb. I hate January. Feb. is not much better, but at least I can start to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I need some color and heat right now. Ok, I'm done. Dark mood has passed for now. :)

I got my books today! Three mountain books. Two, about Everest and 1 about K2. The people that climb those mountains are amazing and since I will never have the strength or money to do it, I live vicariously through them.

I love mountain books. I have dreams to one day be fit enough (and rich enough) to travel around the world climbing mountains. It's probably unlikely that will ever happen, but I do love reading about other people's adventures and dreaming about doing it myself.

I worked in Estes for a summer after high school. I climbed Longs Peak and hiked Rocky Mountain National Park all summer. Standing on top of Longs Peak was the most amazing feeling. I can see why people get hooked on it. The coach of our boys cross country team climbed to Everest Base Camp last fall. I told him I am going to call him one of these days so I can see his pics and hear all about it.
