I told you I would be back and I always like to begin where I left off:
"HIGH NOTES -- A group of musicians from various countries set a record last month for highest performance at the summit of 21,825-foot Mera Peak in Nepal. "I felt like a 90-year-old with asthma," said one performer, Oz Bayldon, describing the experience this week (Boston Globe June 2 2012)."
That was a photograph from the top, folks.
"NH man back after climbing Mount Everest
NOTTINGHAM, N.H.—A Nottingham man is back in New Hampshire after climbing to the summit of Mount Everest. Joe Pratt tells WMUR-TV that anyone who climbs the 29,000-foot Everest and survives is lucky.
Pratt, who returned to New Hampshire earlier this week, says the hardest
part of the venture was coming down after reaching the summit. Pratt
says recent news of several climbers not making it back down only made
matters worse. In one weekend, four people died. A traffic jam of hikers
was blamed as a factor in their deaths. Pratt said he came face-to-face with climbers virtually stuck on Mount Everest, with their bodies frozen
solid."
Yeah, okay, that's enough mountain-climbing with the old BG.
