Tenzing Norgay on Everest 1953 (thanks Flickr #5)

I have "touched" Everest this month.

In a brilliant alignment of the planets, poor Ed Hillary, Everest, and Alfred Gregory (photographer on the 1953 expedition) have combined to give me the scoop of my nascent writing career, with a front page story and byline for the local paper.
