Give the wind my regards, If you will? I’m late…. My stolen youth, at times Was released to coincidence Or…for a better meaning Enigmatic images…things that Were supposed to be… But never gave consideration to Selling my book… The translated copy isn’t ready Last four years were rock hard Footings, in a place Where the earth shook And… I wanted to climb mountains With methods barely used Without harness, stoppers or rope There were no manuals Except knowing how to be faithful to sounds Unheard Guesswork can be failures Which holds interest close… And a most definite source Of seven summits Determined to share enjoyment Offering unsurpassed training Understanding restrictions and dreams Is an understatement, when Developing physical and mental strength Meeting that power in-betwween Expanding thoughts where ever possible Reading philosophy behind glaciers Why? You ask? Why Not! Coaching skills are a gas! Eliminating major expense Providing highest quality tents Nothing is pre-planned Everything is surprise! Discovering the best Off the beaten paths of life Mountain Climbing If nothing else, should surpress my fear of heights |

Ya know Lee, I was going to try to pick just one favorite verse and realized I could not. This was wonderful writing! Oh, I wanted to let you know I've been having problems with my isp at home but I did get your email and will reply as soon as my email co-operates with me! Hugs for that! The greatest beauty on earth, is |

Nothing is pre-planned Everything is surprise! Discovering the best Off the beaten paths of life Mountain Climbing If nothing else, should surpress my fear of heights Your ponderings are beautiful and make the readers want to climb those mountains too .... there is great power in your words. Life and achievements always involve "exercising" and "finding creative solutions to all problems". Love, Margherita [This message has been edited by Margherita (09-29-2004 06:38 AM).] |

I pass by a mountain climbing store, its actually sells items for open air activities but I see climbing harnesses in the window and wonder if I should ever try. My last climb was a redo of one I did at day camp many moons ago up the 500 feet of Mount Royal 42yrs ago...and the trail is still as it was... |

Mountain Climbing If nothing else, should surpress my fear of heights Hell yeah! Enjoyed this LeeJ Maree Well I see you doing, What I try to do for me, With the words from a poet, And a voice from a choir, And a melody, nothing else matters. ~Stevie Nicks |
