Today, Carrigain
Today is the day to finish climbing the 48 New Hampshire 4000 footers. Caleb is driving up from Massachusetts to meet us at the trailhead, Ethan is here from Pennsylvania and Charlie will be at my side as we hike Mt. Carrigain.
You are amazing! At your age I was finishing raising the last two of my brood (Zach and Amity) of six and starting with therapeutic foster kiddos. I di climb a bit in my early twenties and really enjoyed it! Anyway, I wish you well.
I know you didn't have much of a summer, but perpetual summer is not much fun either. I would really like a little fall in the air experience real soon. Keep on climbing. I stepped up over the curb a couple of times to mimic an increase in altitude on my recent walks. :) Pappy
