Wonderful hike with Newlyweds

In the mid-1980s Josh, a former camper of mine, climbed with me in the Wind Rivers and the Andes of Ecuador. This past week he married Victoria. A portion of of their two week honeymoon was spent  in the Adirondacks.  Yesterday we had a delightful short hike up Mount Van Hoevenberg. Given the rain that morning, as well as the rain the previous two weeks, the trail was quite muddy.  Of course, our spirits were high, and the rain stopped before we hit the summit ... the views were spectacular and I count it as a terrific day it was an honor to join them as they launch a life together. May every day be a honeymoon.
