The men’s group at our church planned a “manly” outing: to climb the nearby Malinche Mountain.
The
November weather was perfect for the experience: dry, clear and cool (which is
a miracle considering that normal Malinche weather is rainy, foggy and
freezing!) The men were able to
appreciate the breath-taking
views of Tlaxcala from 14,500 feet up!
Amazingly,
one of the participants was an 80-year-old man who kept pace with the rest of
the group: 6 hours up and 3 hours back!
Any
“manly” experience would not be complete without a barbeque: and the guys
recovered lost energy barbequing taco meat at the bottom of the mountain,
celebrating their
achievement.
