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.

Australia, Cocos Keeling Island, Beach, 2001 - Diary entry June 29, 2001 - Today was a diving day.... We had to go back to near where we dived this morning, a disappointment to me. Oddly enough, a dive where there was nothing new to do was interesting, because I just lost myself getting close to a lion fish (at one point I let her fins touch into my hand as the tide moved her body). Karen, the guide, signaled that the lion fish was dangerous, and then I took particular notice of the spines on the back. Also, she pointed out two moray eels to me. In particular, the Moon Wrasse was unbelievably beautiful. I give it my award for best design: violet and yellow patterns, starting out more yellow on the back end, intermingled with violet, then transitioning to more violet and less yellow toward the front. then on the snout, there were luminescent pink/maroon lines running down irregularly. Just on one little part where the fin met the body were three distinct colors: the pink/maroon, the violet and the yellow. It seemed like a flag from an African country.
