Hello friends. I won't be on the internet much in the coming weeks. Visit my website David T. Connolly Outdoors.
Failed again to reach the summit but conditions were rather challenging so I don't feel bad. I did set a new personal record for sleeping at altitude. Much more to come.
I made it to the top of Wheeler Peak Oct. 8, 2008 9:30 PM. It's the highest point in New Mexico at 13,161 feet above sea-level.

I reached the summit of Guadalupe Peak April 2, 2008 11:45 MST. I've posted pics, video and a trail report of my bus/bicycle/foot journey to the mountaintop at www.davidtconnolly.com
The American Matterhorn.

Here are some songs I wrote and recorded as a solo project. I'm playing every instrument on these songs except clarinet which was played by Jim Phegley. Click the titles to download the songs.
"Southwest Serenade".
"Love Song".
"Kanake's Theme".
Of course there's no charge for these tunes and if you want to burn them and give them to your friends that's fine. Also screw the RIAA!
Here's a song I wrote last week then recorded the next day. Some friends (Fred - guitar, Chris - bass, Rodger - keyboard) helped me record it in our living room.
"3 times a loser".
Here's another from the living room series of recordings. Fred Williamson - engineering and background vocals, Chris Kruse - bass.
"Message To Memphis".
