Climb Every Mountain . . . . .

Cue the singing nun.   I'm thrilled to be climbing Mount Washington again this summer.   Mount Washington, in New Hampshire, is the highest mountain in the Northeast.



Two years ago, my sister and I climbed Mount Washington.  It took close to six hours to reach the peak.   Although it was a hard climb, and we were cursing ourselves towards the end, once we reached the top we were ecstatic.  

The only problem was that after six hours of climbing, we were too exhausted to climb back down, so we took a bus back to the base.   Lot's of  people do manage the climb and descent in one day, but we had to admit to ourselves we weren't up for it.

We swore then and there that we'd attempt the climb again, and next time, we'd book the hut at the top of the mountain, stay overnight and climb back down the next day.  

When others heard about our adventure and desire to go back, they asked to join us.   So next July a group of four of us are climbing, staying overnight at the top and climbing back down.

All of us are ladies and we're all either over or close to 50.
