My counselor is a mountaineer
Jul. 18th, 2013 04:06 pmToday 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 :(
( abby is funny )
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
