But to see the challenges that these people faced and how great and powerful nature can be.
    You better hope that you don't have to pass a grammar test in order to qualify to climb the mountain.

    I got dangerously altitude sick when climbing a mountain less than 14,000 ft, I can't imagine how your body would feel twice that elevation.

    If there was a pond full of ducks up there, we'd all be dead.

    She had another good story she used to tell about the size of Shorty's pecker too.

    I respect people who find climbing to get to the top one of their things, but the last time I went hiking was up Camelback Mountain in Arizona. I made the statement, that I won't be climbing any mountains unless I have a gun with me and there is a critter to shoot at the top.

    And his son tells lies bigger than the whole family out together!!

    He used to weigh about 450 and said he was a wrestler, lover boy Larry is what he said his stage name was.

    Russell Hughes went to the wrestling at the civic center to see if it was true.

    I said Russell was he wrestling, he said the only thing he was wrestling was that tub if buttered popcorn

    Tell me about it. That fat boy was a terror when he was a kid too. Always in trouble and always running his mouth. It's a wonder someone didn't kill his fat butt.
