CURRENT MISSION Share the wonders of this world with other human beings ABOUT ME I was raised as an only child on a dairy farm. I became a private pilot as I always wanted to see what was over the horizon. Fair weather flying & dairying do not mix well as I had to make hay when the sun shines & fuel for the plane is expensive especially on a dairy farmer's income. Having 5 children put me out of flying for sure. A fellow knocked on our door 1 day looking for work on a farm & stayed for 2 years. It opened possibilities for travel having him help us. I was able to visit 5 European countries. I have since visitied Brazil, Mexico, Vietnam, China, Cuba, Sweden, Japan & Haiti. I have come to respect the people of all these lands as they are all doing their best with what the Earth provides them as a resource. PHILOSOPHY Smile you look much prettier that way. We are only here for a short time & need to make use of each day to show our love of God, neighbor & fellow man. I am a minimalist aiming to do as much as I can with minimal use of energy, resources & money to get the desired outcome.
