Dispatch 30: Fast Trip to ABC and Back

Hey, this is Dave and I'm back down at Base Camp, I got up early this morning and left Base Camp about five and . . . . Camp I . . . ABC. Beautiful morning out there, great walking and I was back down here by about 1:30 or so, pretty much what I was looking for. . . .felt good, nice to see everybody ot there. I saw good friends . . . and Louis Benitez, saw from AAI Vern Tejas and Dave Morton. . . . Those bigger groups are trying to get their last round of acclimatization in, me I'm going to go for more exercise like this in the next few days and come up with my plan from there. Really fun day, couple of spectacular avalanches off Nuptse, didn't affect anybody but fun to watch. And then the afternoon ended up cloudy and I just took it easy down here in my tent, tried to drink a bunch of water and recover from the day. Okay, I'll let you know what goes on tomorrow.
