Before the laundry explosion, no doubt??

Well-deserved! & reason to celebrate 🙌

Well, then without a doubt;
Multiple chapeaux 🎩 chapeaux 🧢 chapeaux 👒 to you both!! 🙌👍

Struggling up the mountain pass, & still she stops to take flower-photos! Yep, that’s dedication!

…and relentless, except for a few meters on the easterly corner of the hairpins.

Thanks, Kathleen. We will wear the badge with honour.

Thank you, Anne. It was a big one, and I now have the jersey to prove it 🙃.

Thank you, Keith. Now, we can enthusiastically reply ‘yes’ when you ask if we have done the Stelvio. You will ask, won’t you? 🤣

Absolutely. It feels like we joined a fraternity.

Thanks, Lyle. These marmots were near tournamte 12. As for the motos, the majority were ok. I did notice that they became more irksome and jarring as we neared the summit.

Thanks, Kirsten. You and Lyle inspired me. Just knowing you had done it with your panniers made it a possibility.

Thank-you, Mike!

Absolutely! And, boy, did it hit the spot.

Thanks, Patty. This is our highest col ever!

Thanks, Mike. I always appreciate your expertise in id’ing the plants and flowers.
