We are climbing the high points of every county in the state of New York—all 62 of them! We collect rocks at each point, as [my husband] is a geologist, and also take a photo of our twin sons, now 16. It has taken us more than five years, but we are at the point of getting it done soon. All we need is one more—Brooklyn, New York!

At first, when we proposed this quest to the boys, they were not happy. They said that we didn't do this to the girls. I said, we aren't doing it to you, we are doing it with you! They now have risen to the challenge and, frankly, leave us in the dust.
