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.

Zambia, Victoria Falls B&W, 2000 - Of all the great falls, Angel, Igua?u, Niagara, etc., I found Victoria Falls to be the most visually spectacular.
France, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, Village Houses, 2000 - Most Americans would be surprised to know there is a French territory in North America. St. Pierre and Miquelon is a small enclave off of the coast of Newfoundland in Canada, but still very much a part of France.

Papua New Guinea, Jeff Shea Eats Sago, 1983 - I eat sago that has been cooked into a gel and stuffed into bamboo for storage. I found sago was prepared in many forms. I even saw it cooked like a pancake. It has virtually no flavor. Sago comes from the pith of the sago palm.
