A High Place

Everyone has probably heard about the highest mountain in the world. This is of course MT Everest which is located in the Himalaya mountain range. Estimated to be 29,029 ft above sea level, the mountain towers above the world in its quiet way. The first ever successful attempt to climb the mountain was achieved by two climbers named Edmund Hillary from New Zealand and tensing Norgay from Nepal. The made a successful attempt at the mountain in 1953.

This mountain has been the focus of many books and TV shows. Its ability to attract climbers to its peak is unrivaled. Despite the dangers, people keep coming to conquer the mountain and often risk their lives by doing so. I have no wish to climb the mountain at this point in my life. I am sure that I lack the strength and stamina it would take. I will leave it to others!

The phone call

My mom called the other day and we got to talking. I didn’t realize it at the time, but we spent two hours on the phone. I guess we had a lot of catching up to do. It’s funny how time can get away from you when you are doing something interesting. I know it must sound funny that talking with my mom is interesting, but I guess it was.

I remember when I first had a girlfriend; we used to talk deep into the night. I don’t really remember anything that we specifically talked about, but it must have kept me busy. I guess that’s the way phone calls go. Some are short and some are long!
