CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hello, I'm Heather. I currently live next door to Lake Michigan and enjoy a beautiful lifestyle. I love to explore, travel and generally make merriment. I seek art, music, conversation, foods, smells, interactions and wonderment.

PHILOSOPHY

Inner peace leads to outer peace. Harm nothing and no harm will come to you. Smile; it changes everything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumped from a 45 ft. cliff into a Colorado River foot hole. Scared the crap out of me but I would do it again in a heartbeat.
New Orleans stole my heart. San Fran roared like a lion. Portland engulfed me in snow. I've learned glaciers exist in the rainforest. I've driven a motorbike through the northern mountains of Thailand. That was a marvelous feat. I also came face to face with a Barracuda, and he smiled at me. ;)
