Aconcagua: Justman & Team Settling in at Camp 1
Hello everyone in the lowlands! It's Team 2 up here at Camp 1 on Aconcagua. We just found some prime real estate at 16,200 feet. It's a sunny day with some scattered clouds, which made it comfortable climbing.
Everyone is doing great and we are now relaxing in the sun drinking water and eating to recover.

Merry Christmas to all you trekkers. Josh it was so nice to hear your voice. I know you all are having a wonderful time and what an experience to will be able to share with us when you get home. We went to Mass and spent Christmas Eve with Lily’s family and truly missed you not being there but knew you were there in spirit. Have a great and blessed day today and continue to be safe. I can’t wait to see you and a picture of you all the day you summit. Lots of love of this Christmas Day. love mom and dad

Cindee,
Your mail and packages are all safely inside. The plants inside and out are all watered. You have lots of cards to come home to! Tugboat played with some toys and I ate one of your salted chocolates. It was just sitting there staring at me. The Doctor took me to The Nutcracker last night and I thought of you repeatedly. They changed a few little things up which was great. It wasn’t the same without you. Have a very Merry Christmas!! XOXO
