My Dad and I on our terrace in Brooklyn.  We lived on the 23rd floor, behind us is Coney Island beach and miles of ocean behind it…   it really was some sight.  Two blocks to the right, along the boardwalk is the Cyclone.  Check us out in our matching t-shirts!  My shorts!?  And now on to our feet, look at them socks and shoes I was wearing..  Ha!  And my Dad just lost two toes on his right foot to frost bite while climbing Mount Logan, the tallest in Canada.  He says that near the top they would climb while it was -50º F and would bundle up in their tents when it fell to -90º F and wait for the storms to pass.  I can’t even imagine.  Despite losing his middle toes he then went on to run a few marathons.  He’s an incredible person and I look forward to spending the day with him tomorrow.
