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.

Antarctica, Ice Bubbles 1, 2001 - While waiting for a plane from our camp in Antarctica to the South Pole, I went on a day hike in the Patriot Hills. I went with Katherine from Adventure Network who was familiar with the terrain. When we had descended from the Hills, at the base of the other side, we saw a rather incredible phenomena at "Groovy Pool": Ice Bubbles! Exactly how these were formed is a mystery. It appeared that as the water was freezing air was trying to escape, which formed ice of a lesser density. I simply don't know! Can anyone out there explain it? It was brilliant. Getting a photograph to show it was a bit of a challenge. There is a separate view on this website that gives a better overall feeling of rising bubbles.
Philippines-Pampanga - Awning, 2007 - If you look at the world through the eyes that you have been taught to judge things by, this old ragged awning might seem a shame. But if you look at the world through eyes that see the world without judgement, like a child, this old ragged awning becomes something of beauty. Ruth Bernhard said to me to wake up every morning and see the world as if you are seeing it for the first time.
