I bet a fairy lived in that cabin. or an old woman. or a small dragon.
Location, location, location.
I look forward to the continuation.
Weirsdo you're a poet
and you didn't even know it.
Doug, Doug, Doug. *sigh* You sure Heart Danger. But obviously not as much as the cabin dweller.
I look forward to the continuation as well.
Ariel, that's cute. Who else would carry wood up a mountain I could barely climb?
Weirsdo, so stories in parts aren't too much frustration?
Sar, I don't even "heart" skipping meals anymore.
Actonbell, at 38 I just yearn for vacations. TV and no phone would do.
That's a great story, Doug. That same summer, I actually climbed up Mt. Vesuvius with Namron Wolverine Pez... we sprinkled some of Nivek Army Ranger Pez's ashes once we got to the top.
I felt slightly stupid climbing up a not-quite-inactive volcano, too.
Wow, someone built a cabin there?!
That is wild.
So, when I finally get to Peru will you come along as a trail guide?
You seem to know all the places one should avoid.
Great story, as usual. The only thing I've ever climbed was a six-foot ladder to change a light bulb. I almost fell off.
Aral, are you sure we aren't twins? Mostly inactive doesn't sound very comforting.
Love to, Logo. When I zig, you zag and everything should turn out grand for you.
Fred, Volcanoes are easier to stay on. Try one next time you have to change a light bulb.
How I know these stories. Iceland is perfect for these kinda stories.
Once I wanted to see the highest waterfall here (Glymur)from above and took a Swedish, a Spanish and a Finnish friend and of we went. We walked up the wrong side of the mountain, with no rounte pointers and snow and ice all over. I literally said goodbye to the world up there, because I continiously fell and slipped 100 of meters down. Had to pull myself up and continue anew. It took us all day, but somehow we made it. When we finally reached the top: I had forgotten my camera! On the other side of the mountain we saw tourists walking easily a paved hiking route in the best of moods.
One of my friend took an amazing picture and we sold it to teh newspaper here, because it was a special view. Ah, to be 20 again :)
That was funny.
I am beginning to think you are crazier than I at first suspected.
I think you had a very nice , if extreme, life.
You are the master of the surprise ending. Can't wait to see how your life totals out. In my blurry peripheral vision as I read, I thought the word you defined was eternity and I was prepared to read a conclusion written by those who found your body. Great story. How many times in life do we wonder if we should just turn back? xoxo
Or 25, Monika. That's a great story. When you said "a Swedish, a Finnish and a Spanish friend" my first thought was "Oh, Miz Bohemia."
I'm a little odd, Alice, yeah. Good of you to notice.
Mireille, my life hasn't totalled out yet but I love the phrase and it could happen any idea now.
I think you and Aral are twins! At least she had the SIL with her.
You have lead some exciting life kiddo! *hats off to you*
Great story.
Wow. The reason of youth sounds like folly. Exciting story.
Monika... my first thought was that it sounded like one of those jokes were you start out "There was a Spanish guy and a Swedish guy and..." you get the picture...
Soooo....
*GASP* Am I a JOKE? A JOKE DOUG?!?!?
Man are we siblings now or what?
Extremity... throw that word out at a bohemian and that is what you get... forget limblike definitions and dish out the drama baby!
Woooohooo!
Seriously... *blush* You thought of me! Bohemians sure like being thought of!
Thanks, TLP. Fishing cap?
It does sound that way, doesn't it Icy? Good girl!
Miz B, you are no joke. Rephrase Monika's sentence this way and see if you see what I was thinking: "I took a Persian, a Danish and a Spanish friend with me."
I also love these stories. I think that perhaps you should start a list of what you HAVEN'T done - the list of what you have done is too impressive!
Extremity: the anti-couch~potato
I know dear Doug! I just had to squeeze some drama into the day! I am afraid it is the way of the bohemian! *sigh* A heavy burden to carry but someone's gotta do it!
I think if Miz B. would have been with me on that day...it would have been so much more fun! :)she would have been sliding on that snow with yogic grace!
Ooooh! Then you could say you were with a Swedish, a Spanish, a Finnish and an Iranian/Danish/Icelandic chick raised in Spain and the US.... how's that for a mouthful? Gotta fit in your German self in there too! Euro-fruity!
that's a hot location for a home
emnyyphd: the enemy is a doctor
I thoroughly enjoy your adventures. I look forward to Part Two. I'm glad you lived to tell the tale. I bet whoever owns that little cabin has a hard time keeping it ash free. Dusting, always dusting!
Extremity: My piggy toes.
Dddragon, I've never shod an elephant.
Ah drama, Miz B! We could all use a little drama!
Haha, Monika. Tantric ice-climbing. We should patent that.
Miz B, Euro-fruity should be in the dictionary.
Sure, Karma, but the it's hard to argue with the rent.
Yeah, Jamie Dawn and washing lava off of the good china too. Oink oink!
Doug, neither have I. I have, however, picked the hooves of horses. Have gotten stepped on in return.
oh, silly me. I'm sure that you've been there.
Well, yeah, Dddragon, but since you probably made fudge, grilled an egg, took your daughters to four classes, drew a photorealistic baboon and vacuumed a couch on that day, and sold a stylish piece of furniture, I'll still defer to you.
