Congratulations! Glad to see you waiving from atop Mount Blanc.

Exploring a bit more here on Everest:

Congratulations! Enjoy the view from Mount Vancouver!

And way better than my German--which is non-existent.

Oui!

Je parle francais...un peu. Tres, tres, peu.

(and that's about the extent of my French...most of what I learned in high school/college has fallen out of my head)

Thanks! I was getting a little worried about my climbing legs there for a while....

Yes...but I'll just be roaming around here on Everest. I don't think I can manage another 50 in one month. :-)

I've done it! I've reached 100! [She says as she makes for the champagne bottle stashed at the peak by Susan.]

I have Service for Two...but it's buried somewhere in my book storage boxes. Perhaps on my next overhaul of books, I'll pull it out and offer it up. But, I'm afraid I can't make any promises how soon that will be. At this point...probably not before next spring.
