It’s a great site and a fantastic adventure you are all on
I'm sadly just a virtual everest climber and follow your website daily. It’s a great site and a fantastic adventure you are all on. There are many of us out here all around the world sitting in our grey office cells under dull fluorescent lights wishing we were you. So when you feel low, sick of the cold wind and toes and just want to  pack up and go home, don't forget how many people are here, at home, watching... inspired by your amazing courage and willing you safely on and up.
