Thank you for that video, and thank you Jody for the gorgeous images. Thanks for the comments from people I wish I could have met but now get to connect with a little at least. Tamara, yes, you got it right of late. Curmudgeon, ever since Higgins ran out of footholds, or whatever. Thank you Ed for your kindness. I have a lyric, "I'm glad I got to know you in my one and only life." Yes it's a big universe, and so much distance. Try to count the stars. And all the eternities, yet here we are. We found our way here, though for too short a time.

Jody I think those are the right hands of Pat Ament and Jim Bridwell, as we drove to Layton's memorial in Arizona.

Pat, though we've never met, I chime in with my birthday wishes, and words of appreciation, as well. From about the moment I started climbing in '75, I heard of your exploits, of Supremacy Crack, and your unusually natural abilities on rock.
So glad you're around to receive the wishes of friends and admirers!

Thanks, Tom, for your kindness. Jody, then that would be your hand? Bridwell sat to my left at the service, if I remember. Or is that Jim's hand on the right? It looks as though it could pass for a ragged Bridwell hand.

Beautiful shot, Jody. Strangely intuitive of you to think it would raise my spirits simply to see a mountain with a little beautiful light on it...

Nature paints so many masterpieces, every day, every hour, every moment.
