You make it look so fun!

How long have you been doing this, Sylva?

Can you make a long story short, because I
need to go polish off a bratwurst.

Re: You make it look so fun!

Since I was knee high to a Grasshopper ..

BEST of times to you, Sylva, and hope you
don't have to spend too much of it working
inside a stupid office.

Re: Awesome!

You bet! It was a fantastic climb...although the rest of route was quite long and very exposed, think I was just happy to sit down!

Re: This...

Thanks so much! Although the pic is not perfectly clear because it was actually quite cloudy and snowing a bit...that's ok, that way I could not see how far down it really was :-)

Well deserved

As usual very beautiful Sylva, and of course, over nice mountains!
