I went to high school with Fred Simmons, who made it to the summit of Mount Everest on 5/19/12.   This is his blog, with his account of the experience, plus photos.  Interesting reading.

I have no idea.  I haven't seen the guy since high school.  Actually, he was the bratty little brother of one of my good friends.   :laugh:

The link to his blog was posted FB, and I found the content so interesting, I thought I would share it.
