http://garthhamilton.blogspot.com/2015/08/cincinnati-flying-pig-marathon-take-2.html
Monday, August 3, 2015. Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon, Take 2. Posted from Vicente Guerrero, Mexico. I hope to blog some of our church's current work projects down here in Mexico. I love the tutu! Vine video: Click the unmute button. To unleash the full craziness of this clip, filmed as I neared the "Finish Swine" of this year's Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon. Rank: 22nd in Cincinnati this morning/ 20th place overall! Mt Hood climb Thursday hobbled me to a 7:54 pace this year. The tutu strikes again!

Photo from Sam's camera. 3:15 am on July 5. We picked up our climbing permits in Cougar j...

Was once again the goal for this overseas day trip (our kids had been out of town for a couple days). Had the Seoul flights been too full to fly standby on like last month. And they were- the alternate plan was to visit a few friends in Singapore for the day. Business Elite cabin view of the Netherlands this morning. Apr 17, 2015 at 2:50pm PDT.

Garth's Blog: Hiking Devil's Rest loop
http://garthhamilton.blogspot.com/2015/06/hiking-devils-rest-loop.html
Saturday, June 6, 2015. Hiking Devil's Rest loop. Yesterday's European daytrip to bicycle with overseas friends was reworked into flying down to Hollywood for lunch with one of my best buds. I didn't lead a hike this weekend, but instead stayed mostly local for what matters most: Spending time with family, ministry grads, and the amazing friends who make life worth living. I’ll dedicate blog posts to our earlier and bigger 2015 hikes, climbs, and scrambles when I get a chance! Jun 3, 2015 at 12:18pm PDT.

Never before seen photo of Katya and I on the summit of Mount Hood! Our final Mount Hood climb of the year. Has been bumped up considerably to chase after the official end of the "safe" climbing season last week. Time slipped away from us this year. Don't judge. I hope to be c...
