| Introduction | I'm a fortunate man who has been father to seven sons via single parent adoption. My two youngest sons are from The Amazon area of Peru. Since the early 90's I've been traveling to the most biodiverse area on Earth. It's been the fulfillment of a childhood dream to see and learn how the Earth looks when nature is in charge. I have been a mental health therapist for 35+ years here in the states. At home I garden to grow my soul. I have a fasination with anything of integrity from buildings to cars, tools and of course, people. I believe in the concept of people living a diverse village life where our roles are more defined both by our skills as well as our needs. Reaching across generations to draw us together as a people strikes me as a very powerful and comfortable way to live. If that makes a me a dreamer I'm proud to be in such company. |
