Imitation is Flattery

Posted on Tuesday 5 September 2006 by Joshua

If imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, then I am flattered. Maybe we should have a photo contest of the most interesting place to do the wonderbox.us opening screen point… So to start off this contest, here is my mother, Barbara, in Killington, VT. Although she is not standing, I wil give her points for being the first…plus, she is my Mom!

    I have to provide a little info here. We rode the gondola up to the top of Killington mountain. Shawn told us that there was a trail up to the tippy top which should only take 5 minutes. He said it like this,”Oh, 5 minutes, no big deal.” Kathy and I had sandals on, Tom and Sue were smart, wore sneakers. We hiked up over boulders, exposed roots, hanging onto trees, etc. and made it up. What a wonderful cool breeze we experienced and what a view of the Vermont green mountains. It was worth it, Shawn! And it took a little longer than 5 minutes for us old folks. (or maybe I should just speak for myself) 🙂
    So, of course, I had to do my Josh point but I think I pointed east.
    Now you have “the rest of the story”………

    Yes… You would have gotten in trouble if you didn’t comment… Thanks for being obedient. 🙂 Love you brotha! ~Betsy

    as we got to the top with me leading the way and not following my sisers or my beautiful wife (ask your mom about this and new jersey ride home recently) . my lovely sister barbara was out of breath but kept saying “DA PLANE- DA PLANE ” as she sat on the rock looking into vermont finest scenery. we had a good time and a lot of laughs .

    We had a great day and got some beautiful shots but the first thing that your Mom thought of Josh was the intro to your web site and we all knew what she was talking about! See what an impression this has made! Go west, young man!

    hey susan , all i kept on hearing was “ARE WE THERE YET” & ” I THOUGHT THIS WAS ONLY 5 MINUTES UP THE TRAIL” .
    WE HAD A GOOD TIME . the leaves are already changing quickly and should be an early FALL. BUT I DO REMEMBER YOUR MOM SAYING THIS WOULD BE A GOOD SHOT FOR JOSH AS SHE WAS RUBBING HER FEET.

    Josh,

    Your mom is actually pointing west! towards NY. It should have been only about a five minutes walk, but my dad was leading so they were probably lost. At least they found the gondola. I’ll pass some photos of the upcoming fall foilage mountains soon.
