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.

Western Sahara, Beached Ship, 2000 - Western Sahara was a lonely sort of place, a lone outpost with an indefinite political affiliation. Morocco claims ownership of it, and it is listed under the International Standards Organizations as both a separate country and also as a province of Morocco. This beached ship was enormous and uncanny, sitting there, unattended on the shore near Laayoune (pronounced el-lai-yun).
