Gazelles and Mules

Unlike most couples, when we are trekking we tend to travel at different speeds. Yammy claims this has to do with my lazy, sedentary lifestyle.
On the trail I get occassional glimpses of Yammy galloping ahead, like a gazelle with her feet hardly touching the ground. I follow along like an old lame mule headed to the glue factory.
"She is too strong for him " says a sherpa huddled around the fire. "Also in bed" says another and they all erupt into cackling laughter.
