My counselor is a mountaineer

[glacier_kitty]

Today I was talking to my counselor (Cathy) about my trip to Gulkana Glacier..Cathy said she had been on glaciers before too and I asked which ones. She was like "oh the ones by Mt. McKinley when I climbed it." I was like "wait..you climbed Mt. McKinley?!" I asked if she summited and she had..THREE times!!! She also climbed mountains in Nepal and Aconcagua, the highest mountain in South America (22,837 ft) and she's walked on the Harding Icefield (and fell into a crevasse! D: She was roped up of course, but still..yikes! She said it was very blue) and been to Kilimanjaro. I had NO idea Cathy was a mountaineer!! I had talked about glaciers and mountaineering before but she didn't say anything then (though she did talk about mountaineering books I've read..hmm). That is super awesome!! I was definitely shocked haha

Someone stole Paulette's phone and $10 today..right off her desk! She had gone to fix her lunch and I went to tell a coworker someone was dropping books off..and someone took that opportunity to steal her stuff! Someone did see her (yes, her!) and wondered what she was doing..he didn't have a good enough description for the police though. Wow, that is awful :(



Hehe! Good thing she likes having her belly rubbed ;)



Day 06 - A song that reminds you of a best friend

Watch on YouTube

Would you rather live in a country run by supermodels or live in a country run by professional football players? Football players..the supermodels would be a disaster. D: We'd all be anorexic..

Today's trivia: Dashboards were originally just to protect drivers from horse poop. Carriages and buggies had a "dash" board that were made of drop cloth or leather. The board kept the horses' feet from slinging up mud or poop as they dashed along through puddles and muck keeping the driver and passengers clean

That is way too fitting that Cathy happens to be a mountaineer!! That is SO awesome that she has climbed so many mountains and experienced so many different countries! I can't believe she fell into a crevasse either, that must have been super scary. How awesome!

I can't believe someone would just take Paulette's phone and money right off her desk... What is wrong with some people? That's just sad and a shame.

Awwww I love that song ("Swing Life Away"), definitely a good choice ;) Heehee <3

Abby is so cute and funny hehe.
