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.

Seram, Dragonfly, 2006 - On the walk from Ilela Mariena to Kanikeh, deep in the jungle, we stopped for lunch. While my guides cut up deer meat, I sat in the shallows of a stream photographing insects. Here a dragonfly sits on a floating leaf in the sun.
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.
