Climb Every Mountain

Climb every mountain…okay, well maybe not every mountain, but I did climb one mountain last weekend. Camelback Mountain. It’s a gorgeous mountain right in the heart of Phoenix. Our friends the Jacobs joined us on our hike. The sun was shining, the sky was blue, and the temperature was a refreshing 65 degrees. An absolutely perfect day for a hike.

It was a fabulous hike. I absolutely loved it! It was a great workout and it was filled with incredible views of the city. We packed a little lunch, so we had a picnic right on top of the mountain. It really was a perfect day!

I enjoyed the hike so much, Sean suggested that I try and give camping one more try. Hmmm…no thanks. I think I’m good.

I'm a Survivor

I woke up this morning and I could feel the excitement in the air. It was the kind of excitement you feel when you are about to see a dear friend that you haven’t seen in a while. Jeff Probst, oh how I’ve missed you. That’s right, today is the premiere of the Survivor Tocantins – The Brazilian Highlands. The 18th season of the best reality show on earth.

Confession: I have seen every episode of Survivor that has ever aired.

Some of you might be thinking that that’s an embarrassing fact about me and perhaps it is, but I like to think of it as more of an accomplishment. I mean, how many people can say that? I am a true fan. I have been a Survivor fan since it’s beginning in the summer of 2000. I mean I watched Survivor before it was cool to watch reality t.v.

Every season, I always think to myself, “Gosh, I wish I could be on the show!” After watching 17 seasons of outwitting, outplaying, and outlasting, I think I would do a pretty damn good job out there.

So, in case Jeff Probst just happens to stumble upon my blog, I’d like to say a few words. Ahem…

Dear Jeff Probst,

I am your biggest fan. I heart Survivor. Please pick me to be on your next show. I know I don’t even like camping, and I know I get really irritable (and sometimes angry) when I’m hungry, but I promise I will be a FABULOUS contestant!

I’ve been with you and the show through good times and in bad and I will never abandon you. If you would like to invite me to be a contestant, you know where I will be every Thursday night at 7p.m. I hope to see you soon.

Yours truly,
Paige “Survivor” Lunny
