Hello from Everest!

Hi everyone!! The blog is great, it was so fun reading everyone's notes. This was the first time I've been able to check it, unfortunately internet is not working well and skype will not be possible from basecamp. We walked 4 hrs to the nearest village with internet and I sent Todger and Ms. Pinkus a note to you all.
Sounds like everyone is doing well in Vail! I miss you all and can't wait to see you this summer. . .hopefully we can have a big ice cream party and slide show of pictures :)
We will head back up to basecamp tomorrow. . then hopefully get some good weather within a week to start heading for the summit!!
I think the best way to contact us is by texting the satellite phone, www.irridium.com, click "send satelite text message" and our number is: 881632512929

Unfortunately we cannot text back, but you can unpdate us on everything that you are doing ! :)

When is 5th grade graduation?? I can't believe you are all going to be 6th graders soon!! Wow!!
Big hugs to everyone!
Mrs. Chalk

  1. Thanks. We got your email and have had a crazy week. The kids had their Earth Day assembly with Ms. Sandberg, NWEA testing, basketball awards, and I think 3 or 4 birthday celebrations. I have been reading all your blogs to them and hopefully Sara and Todger will get on email today to write you. Thinking of you and wishing you the best. The kids will be excited to read your post and talk about you all the time.
