Update to "Enjoy tackling difficult tasks (2)"

The two-part post "Enjoy tackling difficult tasks (2)"  - about the remarkable life of Nakamura Teru, a prominent woman climber of early Shōwa times - now has an appendix.

The appendix translates an appreciation of Nakamura by Sakakura Tokiko, a pioneer woman climber and - like Nakamura - the founder of a climbing club for women.
