Sorry to hear about your mother Rex. She's in a better place now.
Hi everyone!
Well, my Mother passed away Sunday night in her sleep. Fortunately, she didn't have any suffering during her last days. At 96 years old, she had a full and very good life and was a full time mother to the end. When you think of 96 being very old, look at it from being born in 1915 and all the events that have happened since; now, that was a ways back.
Again, I thank all of you for the warm and sincere support you have given me. You are a very special group of guys.
Yeah David, it's mostly an idea I have for the future. Not really needed....but kind of like mount everest......many do it because "IT'S THERE". Ha ha!I'll grant you that if your going to use a helper that will stay coupled for a long continuous run speed matching could be useful.
Same reason I was on a team climb of El Capitan (Zodiac route) after I left the army. It was there!kind of like mount everest......many do it because "IT'S THERE". Ha ha!
Last time I was there was around '81.Climbing El Cap is an amazing accomplishment Jeffrey. My hat's off to you on that. I was scoping out the climbers on it with my binoculars. I feel fortunate to have just seen it in person. Yosemite is too awesome!
