Another common sight in Nepal. A Couple of Views From Poon Hill. Gosainkunda... A Buddhist/Hindu Pilgrimage Site. The Annapurna Range from Laurabina. Typical Spring Weather... Snow Overnight.

There was another six, or seven, days past Gokyo as I headed out, but the weather was so crappy that I didn't get anything worth displaying...

From a few conversations I've recently had: "Can't wait to see the photos... how many photos did you take?" "Don't know, but a guess would be two-to-three THOUSAND." I just started moving the photos from the SD Cards to computer hard disk... assuming one JPG and one RAW per shot... TWO THOUSAND, THREE HUNDRED AND SIX photos... Pardon me if it takes a while to review them all! I hope there are a few keepers... BTW, I think Karin and I will be comparing notes on GI issues over Memorial Day... mine are back... I need a Specialist... I've tried all of the different (illegal) Prescription Drugs that I had in my kit. Last edited by Richard P.; 05/15/13 06:02 PM. Reason: I've become more like you as I'm aging...there were plenty of times on this trip where I was wishing I was HOME...

Goodness, you're going to waste away to nothing! "What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal." Albert Pike
