The reason I have been so inattentive to my blog and blogfriends:
Please enjoy, typos and all.
Now I can finally get back to the rest of the adventure.

Congrats, Stephen! Now don’t you feel so darn proud of yourself!
I’ve only taken a peek but next week, I will do an in-depth once over.
I got the chance today to take a deeper look at the book. I like it! It is your stories that really make it for me. I do wish you had included more of the overwhelming emotion you felt when seeing Everest for the first time (the stuff you included in the blog, calling your parents, etc.) It is your perspective in photos AND words which makes things so nice.
The book is obviously too short! At some point, you need to do a complete book – trip start to finish!
thanks! i agree with you that, for this book, the little anecdotes make it a better experience than just looking at the photos. i just had a hard time keeping it a “photobook” and including all the stories, especially the longer one like everest and the monastery the next day, because it ended up being pages and pages of photos, and then random a novellette, and then more photos. so the end result was admittedly haphazard. but it’s really awesome to see the photos all printed out.
too short?!?! the entire trip would be about 400 pages!!! too expensive for me! maybe in a few years when i’m filthy rich and retired. (oh, to dream!)
i want one! it’s amazing!!! -aimes
yes, it is pretty cool to have. pretty damn expensive, though. i wasn’t really conscious of the price as i was making it, so all those pages really added up.
