I have alot of dreams. Some come out of childhood and became more formed as I grew older.

This is a dream that became more as I grew older and understood what it was and its one of many things I want to do.

The enclosed pictures are of a place called Olympus Mons on the planet Mars. It is currently the largest known mountain and volcano (extinct) in the entire solar system. How big is it? Well it is as large as the state of Arizona. It is 374 miles in diameter. Miles OK Miles. It is taller than Mount Everest or K2 (the tallest mountains on Earth). It is over 16 miles high. And all around its edges is a 4 mile high cliff.

read this Maybe. Just know its big really big.
