Reaching Beyond the Clouds

I am leaving for a few days of specialized rappel training on Mt. Hood! Should have lots of fun.

Went to the doctor yesterday and determined that I need to have some throat tests done because I am having problems swallowing  my medication. Hope that I do not need surgery to correct this situation.

I have discovered that California also does not recognize Vasculitis Awareness Week:  2010 is April 25 thru May 1. This week will occur during my climb on Mt. Everest. It will be great to post some pictures on this blog during Awareness Week from Everest! For now, I have to start working on getting California to recognize the program.
