Sounds exciting. When I was in Miss Loman's third grade Sir Edmund Hillary visited to tell us how lucky we were to have school on Wood Road (and for that matter wood) and he was going back to Nepal to help build schools there. I think he was with the World Book then, one of the teachers, Mr. Hubbard, used to sell them, handicapped from a Long Island duck farm family but a boxer for Notre Dame. The reason I brought it up was that Senator Hillary Clinton was named by her mother after him I read! We had a local "Ranger Warner" a German mountain-climber as our guide in the Congregationalist "Stockaders" as kids. I think we stayed away from the dangerous stuff, then, but visited around there. In drought the snakes come to lower elevations.
