The "Life is hard" quote is one I'll repeat to myself every morning! <br /><br />The range of emotions, the amazing storytelling, the unexpected humor, just threw me as I continued to read. The discovery of the moldy cheese when you were at your lowest was laugh out loud funny!<br /><br />Thanks for keeping this blog running when so many other bloggers have retired. I've read every post you have written over the years, and, although I'll never take casual winter overnight adventures in the mountains like you and Beat routinely do, your adventure reports teach me that I can always do at least a little more than I thought I could; that there is always more in the tank!NHcyclernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-85909449616972740132021-03-30T08:45:57.186-06:002021-03-30T08:45:57.186-06:00From despair to elation and back and forth, isn...From despair to elation and back and forth, isn't that how life often goes, but we just have to keep on moving forward. Great write up as usual, Jill and amazing photos. Sounds like a get away to Leadville was just what you needed. <br />CorrineCorrine and Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10739773134688115222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-90018459703922673362021-03-30T05:30:15.255-06:002021-03-30T05:30:15.255-06:00Gosh, Jill, you are such a winter adventurer, I ju...Gosh, Jill, you are such a winter adventurer, I just love it. Escaping from bad news into the wild harsh conditions is the only way to forget, not think, heal...I love your daydream of cabin in remote Alaska (or remote anything) and the style of living it brings with it. The solitude. The hard work. It'd work if I were alone. Completely and utterly alone. As Antoine de Saint-Exupéry said, "we are responsible for the rose that you have tamed". Lovely photos, as always, and what a time away. "Life is hard in its own ways for each and every one of us, but what a triumph it is, to keep on living." Love it.Olgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00493291972954387932noreply@blogger.com
