Victory!
I spent the morning with Pure Luck, climbing Pleasant Mountain. As you can see, I was pleased about getting to the top. This would have been unthinkable six months ago. It's my third hike up Pleasant, and by far the easiest of the three. We took Sam along, too. (Molly has been a bit too lame for mountains.)
For those of you counting such things, let me just say that today I earned 23 Activity Points!!!
We're going out for a steak dinner.
(More pictures at Flickr, just click through.)


That is an awesome photo. And an awesome achievement. Enjoy the steak dinner!

Go, tell it on the mountain,
over the hills and everywhere.
Go, tell it on the mountain
that Songbird is reborn.
