Top o' the world!!
Summit happened!! Boo yah!! Yippy Kayay!! Yeah!!
Brian Wilfred Oestrike and Justin Joel Hewitt reached the top of the world at about 12:40 pm Tibetan Standard Time. Way to go boys, we are all so proud of what you have accomplished. Not sure what sort of ceremonial celebrations occured up there but we should be filled in very shortly. I suppose a frisbee could really get places.
It was a fairly late summit though and the wind is blowing pretty hard up there, so keep those thoughts and prayers flowing throughout the evening. Thanks again for everything all of you have done. I am sure Mom is grinning from ear to ear in pride, joy and honor in recognition of their incredible journey to the top of the world!

Yay for miss O! Yay for the Oestikes! Yay for yaks and big mountains!
That's the news we wanted when we woke up! :) Now just be careful coming down...
Funny side note for when you can read this: I told my seniors that yesterday/today was the day for the summit, and one of them seemed to be pondering the notion pretty hard... She said to me "well, how do they get back down?" The rest of us looked at each other, and at her, and she followed up with "is there a bus or something?" The scary part is that she was serious. Ouch! :)
yea! yea! we are so proud of your accomplishments and we're so glad to hear that you are making it back down safely.
Look forward to seeing you at Educo Justin!

I can't say enough how proud I am of you guys. Brian I only spent a brief amount of time with you in FoCo during the fundraising efforts at the road, but I am just so happy to have played at least a small role in your planning process. You guys are my heros and I am ecstatic for the both of you. You did it! Take care of yourselves in the mean time, peace and love from me to you and I hope I can congratulate you both in person soon!
As a sign of gratitude for how my wife was saved from CANCER, i decided to reach out to those still suffering from this.
My wife suffered cancer in the year 2013 and it was really tough and heartbreaking for me because she was my all and the symptoms were terrible, she always complain of abnormal vaginal bleeding, and she always have pain during sexual intercourse. . we tried various therapies prescribed by our neurologist but none could cure her. I searched for a cure and i saw a testimony by someone who was cured and so many other with similar body problem, and he left the contact of the doctor who had the cure to cancer . I never imagined cancer. has a natural cure not until i contacted him and he assured me my wife will be fine. I got the herbal medication he recommended and my wife used it and in one months time she was fully okay even up till this moment she is so full of life. cancer. has a cure and it is a herbal cure contact the doctor for more info on drwilliams098675@gmail.com on how to get the medication. Thanks for reading my testimony.
