The Book Vine

As one of the Viners, the crazy one I think.  The last three years I have climbed the 103 floors to the observation deck of the Sears Tower. This is challenging, tiring, fun and most of all rewarding.  The Climb is set up by Rehab Insitute of Chicago (RIC).  Each climber raises money that benefits RIC and the patients at RIC.  The most rewarding part about the climb is coming out of the staircase and to have patient's in wheelchairs that are unable to walk up the stairs, greet you with big smiles of appreciation. I know that the exhausting and amazing climb is well worth it.

I am still seeking donations for my climb and this year my cute little son is joining me. If you can please donate. Thanks so much. Please go to the website and see the great stories from other climbers and patients. It is amazing.
