.....things that are hard

So this past weekend I got to hangout with my friends Matt and his brother Ben (who is a now a new friend). The boys flew in from Nashville Thursday evening, convinced me to climb the incline the next day with them.....yeah they're nuts, but wicked fun. Then the two of them decided that they were going to climb a fourteener (which for those of you that don't know the lingo...that's a mountain that's 14,000 feet and taller) the next day on Saturday.

It was a blast! They make me laugh a lot and I hope they come back to visit soon. So between climbing the incline, having dinner Friday night, and hanging out with them Sunday evening, I had a hoot of time.

p.s. for those of you that don't know...the incline is over 3,000 railroad ties that are make-do steps that lead straight up the side of a mountain....fun, a frickin' riot!!! But great exercise.

This is us at the bottom of the Incline

This is the boys on the way up....they always make the best of everything!! :o)
This is us at the top...finally

I would like to mention that I have done the "incline" a couple of times now and walked away ...unscathed. However, this time, we came directly back down the incline (not recommended by most), and now neither do I recommend it. Because for three days I could barely walk do the damage I inflicted on my right thigh.

Toodles!!!
