Have fun and enjoy the view.  Where is Mt. Humphrey?  How was the hike to the top?
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Back down now in cozy mountain lodge. 

Humphrey is in northern az and is my state's tallest peak.  Part of the san francisco mountains, but i don't hold that against it... Since the san fran mts are only in northern az around flagstaff.

I actually knew where it is.  Lived in AZ 1961-1970  ;)
Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

I don't recall hearing of Mt. Humphrey when I lived in AZ years ago.  That's likely due to the failing brain cells, though.  The San Fran peaks are some scenic mountains.
