An Unexpected Guest!
Recently while writing in my office, I heard a familiar voice I'd heard many times before, but not for almost six years! My expedition partner Chiu Liang Kuo happened to be in town. After going over some recent experiences -- mine in the pressure suits and Chiu's climbing on the legendary and terrifying Eiger -- I pressed my old buddy into helping me transport and display my balloon system at the Pearson Air Museum in Vancouver, Washington, where I regularly present on the pressure suit project. Lots of fun!
