Miss Highpointer - February 2013

Back in 2012, the Highpointers Club put out a call for picture submissions for their 2013 Highpointers calendar. They mentioned the several states that up until that point were never featured in a calendar. Among the list was Delaware. The highpoint is at a busy intersection in a suburban residential area without any noticeable elevation changes. The only views are the same as just about anywhere else in suburban America. In other words, it's not the most scenic or photogenic. I immediately looked through our pictures from our 2009 visit and found a nice picture of Kellisa smiling in her travel wheelchair. I hoped Kellisa at the top of Delaware would be chosen for the upcoming calendar and we were all very excited to learn our picture was selected.

December 2009

Hello. We were in Delaware.

The pictures below don't do the late December weather any justice. It was a lot colder and windier than it looks, especially since we woke up in sunny Florida just a few hours earlier. We were met by Doreen "Queen of Ebright Azimuth" Kupchick as we were parking our car in front of her house. We shared our highpoint totals and Doreen was very interested in Kellisa's story. After a nice chat, we signed the summit register that Doreen keeps in her house. Doreen was kind enough to take the picture of me holding Kellisa at the top of Delaware.
