The Mountain Climber

 Meet Dixie, I did this weekend. She was here from California to attend the fiftieth wedding anniversary of her college roommate. Dixie, I immediately noticed, was in great physical condition for her age.Visiting with her, I discovered that her hobby was climbing mountains. Rainier was mentioned as was Mount Shasta....but I was really impressed when she told me she had climbed Kilimanjaro eleven years ago when she was fifty eight years old.!
