We went on a hiking trip to Patagonia in Argentina in January. It was amazing. The scenery was just incredible. I found my ultimate sport there – walking on glaciers. I’m short, heavy, and have incredible thigh muscles from the 50 billion hours at the gym I put in. Thus, I have a nice, low center of gravity that is perfect for glacier walking. I wish there were glaciers in Pennsylvania. I’d be a glacier tour guide in my spare time.
If I show you guys really pretty pictures, will you forgive me for being such a crappy, intermittent blogger? I thought so.

I did it! (I forget what the heck I did, but I did something.)
She's not heavy. She's my friend Diane.
More meat. I haven't eaten enough meat. I need lamb. Cook me up some lamb.
On that last note – don’t go to Argentina if you’re a vegetarian. You’ll starve and die on a glacier.

Looks gorgeous and as usual you two look adorable. : )
I thought I heard the glacier sizzling as we walked past.
Mount Fitzroy? As in Fitzroy? As in the middle name of both my husband and son? Sweet! You’re forgiven. Looks like an amazing trip!
It’s probably an ancestor. Go learn how to moutain climb, quick!
Your pictures are amazing! Glad you got to take a fun trip. Doubly glad you’re back.
Why, thank you, FringeGirl! It was pretty amazing, I have to say. Tough on the body, though. A couple of times, aching from head to toe and putting ointment on my blisters, I thought, “Exercise is supposed to be good for you, right?”
I’m a vegetarian with a low center of gravity … now I’m seriously conflicted about Argentina.
Go, but bring a lot of dried fruit and vegetables in baggies.
Another activity for low-CG, strong-thighed women? i thought i was stuck with being a running back for short yardage situations…
This is a little colder but way less dangerous. We could rock a glacier guide company, DF. Think about it….
You’re blogging again. with pictures. Of course all is forgiven xx
Thank you! What about for the time I put Alex’s pet Iguana in the bushes? I’m still feeling bad about that.
Wow! Agentina. Wow!
Did you cry for her? (Agentina)
Not enough people were humming that song in the streets of Buenos Aires. Even by the Pink Palace.
I frequently belt out “Hello Buenos Aires”….and I’ve never even been
Glad you’re back, Robin. Have you officially changed your name now to the Ice Queen?
Love that photo simply called “Iceberg”– that’s National Geographic magazine quality.
BTW, did you spot a “Goldberg” beside “Iceberg”?
Wow! That’s a great new name! I’m there!
Some of the pictures look almost fake – like was a green screen in back of us and someone put the scenery in afterwards.
I would love to go to Patagonia! Thanks for the beautiful photos!
Welcome, TS! Go. You’ll love it. It’s so friggin’ beautiful. Not as exotic as some of the locales I saw on your blog, though…
Oooh! Really pretty pics! Let’s see–Mexico, China, Italy, and now Argentina. And those are just the ones I remember off the top of my head! You guys really know how to vacation!! Will you adopt me?
Yes! In a second! Especially since my own kids couldn’t care less about seeing the world unless it is from the side of a pool with all you can drink Diet Coke. Just shoot me.
when are you going to holiday in Australia?
Awesome! I’ve always wanted to starve to death on a glacier, but I’ve just never known where to go.
Stick with me, my friend.
