5 days away |
i’m not sure what’s more bizarre, the fact that i am leaving for nepal in less than a week, or the fact that i am blogging. (i feel like doogie howser and carrie bradshaw rolled into one). i am not sure if we’ll be able to update these posts from the trek, but if so this is where i will leave reminders, instructions and messages for you all as i remember things i should have told you before you left.
physically, i think i am ready, (thank you cuz james and john), packing is a whole different issue. there’s always monday. i really hope we’ll sucessfully be able to post video podcasts every night for you all to see…editing on a mountain using solar power will be a new experience.
oh, and ignore the link to my website above, the site won’t be up for months.
feel free to post messages for me here, i am not sure i will get them on the mountain, but i imagine i can check when we get back to kathmandu. as a back up, call kate in my office. she’ll be bored and mastering spider solitare in my absence.

Good luck, Alex.

Have a Ball, remember your boy scouts training. The lighter was in case you needed to start a fire. If you encounter the Yeti get a hair transplant.

we’ve been looking at the pictures and the video, it looks amazing! Sal wanted to know what you were eating he thought it looked good! Be careful, stay safe and warm and have a great time! salvatore’s having a good laugh while i’m trying to figure out how to do this. I hate the computer but i’m trying so i can keep track of you. Say hi to all. You all should be very proud! This is amazing!:smile:

I was just at dance and I came home to watch your video. I saw you dancing. You might need to come with me and pick up a few new moves.I really think you should have taken me because you could use some hip hop dancin in the background. I also got a webkinz husky.His name is Everest Al.Love you

Just watched Mike’s video, seems we all had that big hair in the 80’s! Hope all is going well. We were glad to see you in a picture. Alexandra needed help with homework today. she had one of those tough mystery words & of course she wanted to call uncle al. we finally figured it out. see if you can - aaeicmnrs. Love the gang.

Dear Alex,
Oh how you have changed. You popped into my meditation this morning so strongly…so I looked for you. I am in FL now after having returned from India, Nepal, Ladakh, and Thailand (1.5yr stint). Would love to reconnect. Take care.
