CURRENT MISSION

Explore the wonderful world we live in; help others wherever we go

ABOUT ME

We are laid-back quiet folks who get louder as the adventure gets more intense. We're always ready to drop everything in order to visit friends and family or see the world.

PHILOSOPHY

We don't drink or smoke and we try to be healthy in all ways. If you don't do as we do, it doesn't matter; if you don't think as we think, it's fine; we are friends.
