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.

Thailand, Samut Prakarn Prov, Churning Of The Milk Ocean Figure
Taiwan, Taipei City (TW-TPE) Prov, Building Tower - I ask myself, is the flowering of buildings all over the world really the work of man or is it being driven by some other power that we are not even aware of. Mankind might ask itself, can it stop "progress" even if it wanted to?
Greenland, Greenland Prov, Liverpool Land, Swirling Brush, 2006 - Ruth Bernhard suggested I get closer to the level of my models, in this case a tiny, swirling brush. While Chikka the dog sniffed my pack for more trail mix, I lay down on the ground to see the brush as does an insect, at eye level, revealing a true wonder.
