We had a fantastic time on Kilimanjaro this June on a special birthday climb for Dr. Charles Martin who turned 75 this year. With him for the challenge were his three daughters and some other close friends and family – a dream of his for a long time now. It was a wonderful trip and everyone realized their goal, to reach the summit of Kilimanjaro. Way to go team!
