Awesome ya’ll
I’m soooo jealous!
Go Fred.. I’m living vicariously through you while your going to the roof of the world!
I have looked at all your posts and they are great. Keep it up and enjoy.
Looks like a “Walk in the Park!” Have a great time!
Kurt and Fred,
Love reading your trip journal updates. I check everyday to see where you are in your Everest Adventure. You have nearly 400 views of your journal on the Whitney Zone (396 to be exact as of today, 4/15/12).
Looking forward to your next update.
May God Bless Your Both, May God Bless Us All
