Young woman amazes everyone by climbing a mountain wearing a skirt and high heels

An American woman has made it a sport to climb high mountain peaks in an everyday outfit. “At first I struggled to climb one mountain, and now I do it with my fingers in my nose, even in heels,” she says.

Erin Ton loves mountaineering so much that she dropped out of college in 2018 to become a full-time mountaineer. The 22-year-old woman has now defied some 57 mountain peaks in Colorado and nowadays no longer does so in adapted outdoor clothing, but simply in a skirt and high heels. She shared some photos of her striking outfit at the top of Mount Elbert at 4,401 meters. Her followers did not hide their enthusiasm. “Crazy and impressive at the same time”, “You are the coolest person ever” and “What a tough woman with class”, it sounds among others. When people ask her why she's doing it, she replies in the Colorado Gazette, "Why not?" For her, the everyday outfit is symbolic. “It is symbolic of how fast I have progressed. At first I struggled to climb one mountain, and now I do it with fingers in my nose, even in heels. I now have a lot of experience and know what I'm doing. I don't mean to urge people to do stupid and reckless things. I know my limits, ”she concludes. Just so you know.

In this Happy Hour we have two nice Jukebox Giants and we will of course play a track from Bruce Springsteen's CD of the Month "Letter to you". Oh yes, there will also be a call to someone who has had a birthday.
Erik's Tip is:

Have fun listening!

Decade Dick: Almost all participants passed the traffic exam

Freek Bredius was a guest in Decennium Dick on behalf of Safe Traffic Netherlands department Krimpen aan den IJssel. He was able to tell us that 421 children participated in the practical traffic exam today. All but five children passed. Congratulations to all! The children who did not make it turned out to have cycled on the route with their hands free. The route started and ended at the Tuyter. Mayor Martijn Vroom was present to officially start the first class. 7.3 Kilometers was cycled and the children of the groups 7 and 8 passed all kinds of difficult intersections and traffic situations in Krimpen aan den IJssel. What was very annoying and difficult was that there have been young people who removed or turned around signs from the route. In addition, some plates are irreparably damaged. It was the first time that this happened on the day of the traffic test. Your browser does not support this audio player. You can download the file . Also in this edition of Decennium Dick a...

#Sweet

#Lief is a themed broadcast of Decennium Dick on Thursday evening March 4, 2021 ... Love is never sin, living without love is sin! That was one of the texts that was written down in chalk on the public road near the Mieras Church on Saturday. How can we find love again in Krimpen? How can we together ensure that peace is restored in our society? Where we can all live, work and live with pleasure? Living with pleasure is also one of the central points of the Youth Advisory Council of Krimpens-Belang. A group of 15 young people want to help local politicians with their ideas and will provide the Krimpens-Belang and thus actually the entire municipal council with input.

Possibly Fieldlab church service in Krimpen

Thursday evening April 1 in Decennium Dick in extended with Mayor Martijn Vroom to look back on the past week. Through Teams I spoke with the mayor tonight about the impasse, the polarization and how we hope to get out of this situation together. POLARIZATION This week for the churches 'The silent week' it is the week of Good Friday and the following Easter. But it was not quiet in Krimpen aan den IJssel. It was restless with a journalist being kicked in the stomach and a firework bomb that exploded near the 'Oude Gereformeerde Kerk in the Netherlands' popularly known as the Mieraskerk. There is polarization. The full city council issued a joint statement this week. The mayor calls it 'the basis for a lot of good that is yet to come'. But the mayor also realizes that more is needed to regain peace in Krimpen: 'Without outside help, I think we will not just get out as a village, so we have already discussed this road a number of times. had with the ministr...
