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.

Norway, Spitsbergen, Mother And Chick Eider Ducks, 2007 - In the month of July on the island of Spitsbergen, the sun never sets. It rolls around the sky in a circular 360 degree fashion. Since there is no night, our habits change. I was on the way to my tent when I stopped to take photos of animals at 4 a.m. I was so impressed, I went back and fetched my 500 mm lens. I sat and delighted taking photographs of the ducks and the terns. I never knew ducks could be so flexible with their wings. But the Eider Ducks taught me differently, as is evidenced in this photograph. (Ref: Birds.)
