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.

Pacific Ocean, Seascape, 1982 - Traveling across the ocean in a small boat offers an experience that cannot be gotten any other way. Being close to the water and without the protection of a large vessel gives one a sense of freedom. The ocean, despite what governments might purport, is truly still a no-man's land. It is a place without a country. It is the world as it once was. Here, a beautiful sunset inspired me.
