The large photo above was taken on June 10, 2017 on a mountainside in Tanzania Africa. Not just any mountain, but the world's tallest free-standing mountain, Mt Kilimanjaro. I took that photo on day 3 of an 8 day trek, as I stood in amazement at the mountain's beauty and calm. She was calling for us, threatening maybe, as we looked up from our roughly 14,000' camp site to her peak of just over 19,000'. It was indescribable. I returned to my tent where my 14 year-old son laid resting. He looked nervous for our climb. Turns out, he wasn't nervous, he was sad. Just four days prior, we had met the children of an African orphanage. One in particular impacted us greatly. We could only imagine the struggles the young girl had and would face in life. She had reason to be mad, mean even. But she was the sweetest! While we were on a climb of our life, aided by expensive clothing and gear, all matching and made from the latest, in-style material, she was "climbing" every day to live. She was so excited to be given hand-me-down cleats to play "football" like a big kid. My son and I returned home after reaching Kili's summit and founded Team Mountain. We forget we are, in spite of our differences, all on the same team, we all climb our own mountains, some apparent and some hidden. Lets do good things.
