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.

DK, Greenland, Kaffeklubben And Camp 2 Site After Losing Tent, 2007, IMG_3770 - The tent fell off the pack on the way to Camp 2. John Richardson and I left on our own. We spotted the rest of the group trying to put up the tent. Kaffeklubben Island, the official northermost point of land in the world appears in the distance as a hill, about one kilometer off the north coast of Greenland, which ends just beyond the tent.
