This website illuminates my life and adventures. My longing for freedom has led me to over 2600 of the world’s 3978 provinces, to every country on earth and to the summit of the highest peak on each continent (thank heaven for good weather!). In my travels, I learned to respect the intelligence and ingenuity of people of all races and callings both past and present. Come see the world as I see it: as a peaceful place, full of nature and beauty. With the right spirit and intent, we can make our world a virtual Garden of Eden.

This chart shows the sequence that I used to climb Mount Everest over a period of six weeks of acclimitization. High altitude's low oxygen content shocks the body into producing more red blood cells. But the body cannot recuperate at high altitude. This means you have to descend and rest, then go higher again, then descend again.
