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.

Antarctica, Looking Back On Way To Vinson, 1997 - This is a view looking back towards the direction we had come from Base Camp, on the way to climb to the summit of Mount Vinson. The tracks in the ground are from the sled I was pulling. Sleds are uses to transport gear, being pulled by ropes attached to a climbers harness.

First, a fire was built. Then sand was put on top of it. The dough was spread out into a flat mass and placed on the sand.
Greenland, North Coast, Arctic Knot Chick, 2007 - This arctic knot chick was one of four chicks that came out occasionally from under its mother's belly. The chicks ventured close to me, within about 8 feet, after I'd been there for awhile. The mother seemed to trust me. I moved very slowly for a good half hour. The markings are incredibly beautiful. This is taken at the landing site at Bliss Bugt. (Ref: Birds.)
