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.

India, Varanasi, Large Camel, 1984 - In my visit to Varanasi, India, I saw this man riding down the street. It seemed a huge camel. I didn't realize camels got so tall! The website http://www.arab.net/camels/ states, "A fully-grown adult camel stands 1.85m/6 feet at the shoulder and 2.15m/7 feet at the hump." To me, the camel in this photograph stands almost 8 feet tall at the hump.
