This website illuminates my life and adventures. My longing for freedom has led me to over 2450 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.

The coldest place I've ever been was on top of Mount Vinson in the sun. There was a breeze. On the way up 'the hill', one crampon became loose. I realized then that there must be climbing deaths attributable to a simple thing like a crampon coming loose. Do you know what it is like to be on a slope in snow and ice with a shoe with no crampon? Fortunately, my climbing partners helped me to get it on again. We went on to the summit. This completed my goal to climb the highest mountain on each continent.
