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.

Namibia, Epupa Woman Sunbasking In Water, 2000 - This young lady was enjoying the water. The day was very hot. She was receptive to being photographed. I always carried my 8x10 camera in those days. The entire kit weighed about 60 pounds. Her exuberance was inspiring.
Uruguay, Train Station, 1993 - There was something sort of other-worldly about Uruguay, as if lost in some soft of a time vacuum. It seems there was some history within the recesses of my mind that connected me with the place. On the way back to Montevideo from Mirador Nacional and the beaches to the east, I was inspired to write the lyrics to Sky Tender.
