This website illuminates my life and adventures. My longing for freedom has led me to over 2450 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.

Greenland, Warming Island, off coast of Liverpool Land, (L to R) Pinnacles, New Strait And Camp, 2006 - This photograph shows the environs of our camp, visible to the right center. Dennis Schmitt and I agreed this was the best campsite we'd ever stayed in. Not only was it visually spectacular but it was also the site of a discovery of global significance. This new strait, partially visible in the foreground, was formed by global warming, making the ground that we were camping on, once considered part of the mainland, a new island.

Komodo, Dragon Face On, 2005 - To take this photograph I had to lay on the ground in front of the Komodo Dragon. Though using a telephoto lens, it was still a bit scary. They have been known to eat humans.
