Nepal 2009

Just returned from a month in Nepal. Kevin Dougherty was in my Peace Corps group, and we both jumped on the chance to go back one more time, this time to trek Manaslu. A great time, yet couldn't help think about Ken often, as we had a great time there too in 1986 and 1987. Ken never trekked there, but I did take him to Nagarkot on the eastern rim of the Kathmandu Valley to see the sunset and sunrise over the Himalaya. We got as far west as Pokhara as well. He loved to collect flags, and had a large Nepal flag on his bedroom wall for many years after. I'm always thankful that he came out, and that he didn't hesitate to see the world, and he did see a lot of it indeed.
