Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Currently living on my project sailboat, a 37' Irwin mkII.
ABOUT ME
Finished a cross country bicycle ride May 8th, then rode up the coast on highway 1 to the Golden Gate bridge.
I am a 61 year young father of four who lives in Longboat Key, Fl. God follower, family man, vegan wanna y(holistic health), minimalist, and a self employed handyman and welder. I love the great outdoors. You can read more about me on Facebook. I have Section hiked over 500 miles of the Appalachian Trail, 100 or so of the N.C. Mountains to Sea Trail, rafted the Gauley river, kayaked in Key West, cycled across America, Washington state, N.C., and Florida, and have been to Nicaragua on a missionary trip.
I still believe in the goodness of American people and have seen it in my adventures.
PHILOSOPHY
Don't go looking for adventure, adventure will find you.
