Wyatt, We all hope the weather improves soon, it finally stopped raining here so the lake will be warm when you get home. Can’t wait for all your stories! Miss you son, Mom and Dad

Derek and Team: My thoughts, prayers, and best wishes are with you and all of your team members as you prepare to make the final push to the summit. Everyone must be so eager to finally reach the top. It’s been great being able to follow your progress up to this point and a waking hour hasn’t past where I don’t think about you up there on that mountain. Stay strong, focused, and most of all safe. Good Luck!! - Pops

Hi Tommy, I hope you are awesome today! For every day that passes, I miss you more than the day before! Not being able to talk to you is the hardest part. I have started talking to you in letters, though, and since I have no place to send them, you’ll have quite a few to read when you get home. This has made me remember when we wrote letters many years ago. Sara and Brandon send their love! They are great! I saw Brandon briefly yesterday. He came by to get his golf clubs to hit balls at the driving range with his friends. I can’t wait for all of us to be sitting down to dinner together again. I’m happy to hear that everything is progressing on schedule. It sounds like the team is working well together. Everyone here is getting excited for summit day. I’m sure you and the team even more so. I am praying for strength and focus as the challenge of the ascent to the top becomes more difficult. My love and thoughts are always with you.
Rhonda

Congratulations Markus!!! On the way down, be on the lookout for any angry birds, even the ones that look only slightly irritated.
