I'm curious about the username.
Also, congratulations!
Years ago, I arrived at college with 34 boxes of cereal, having no idea how/when I would acquire cereal otherwise. I was assigned the obvious nickname by my club ultimate frisbee teammates.
Before 14ers.com, I used this handle and avatar combo on Buffalo Bills and Buffalo Sabres forums.

Congrats on the double whammy. Probably not too many of those out there.
Most people that know me, would probably assume Captain Crunch Berries are my favorite cereal, but t's definitely Cinnamon Toast Crunch. What's yours?

Super congrats, what a great idea, and execution!
BTW, it's Frosted Flakes all the way, every day!
Haha! Many years ago, CTC was definitely at the top of the list, along with Quaker Toasted Oatmeal Squares, a bowl of which I once ate while sleepwalking. However, these days, it’s plain old Cheerios with fresh bananas or berries, and it’s maybe only a couple of times per year. Most of that other stuff is too sugary!

Well done, Cereal! It was a special surprise of my Snowmass adventure to welcome you onto the summit and get to marvel at your accomplishment.
Thanks! Wow, your first forum post! I love MOTHC for your avatar, as well.
Thank you as well for your patience in taking our finisher photos – it was a blessing to find exactly one other person at the summit that day. Photo credit for the group finisher pic in the OP goes to Shaky Legs18!
One last reply! I am pleased to now appreciate why the requisite several-day wait is necessary before replying to one’s own finisher post. There has been a lot to contemplate and formally reflect on.
Anyway, I always go back to this photo as my favorite from any centennial, so I thought it would be fun to share it with you.
Thanks again,
Cereal

Great stuff. Fill those of us who don't climb many of the high 13ers in; what summit is that?
