The most powerful thing you can do to change the world is to change your own beliefs about the nature of life, people, and reality to something more positive … and begin to act accordingly.--Shakti Gawain

Backpacking, hiking, spending time in the water or in the sun. If it is outdoors, I like it!
Music
Any classic rock or bluegrass. Sweet Home Alabama always puts me in a good mood.
Movies
My interest is not limited to any particular genre, but ranges across the board depending on whether I find any appeal in the film. I generally don't care what the critics say.
Television
Survivor; CSI; Lost; House; Grey's Anatomy
Books
John Grisham; Dan Brown; and WEB Griffin are among my favorite authors.
Recently I have been absorbing literature by Southern Authors and have found several works I really enjoyed.
Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee should be required reading for every school age child in America as an example of the atrocities man is capable of committing. Lost Mountain is another must read as an example of the ability of some to show a blatent disregard for the environment.
On a much lighter note, A Walk in the Woods is a great story about having fun doing something I really like..hiking.
Heroes
John Glenn, a true American hero. My friends, who have not hesitated to come to my aid whenever necessary. All those who are environmentally friendly.
About me: An avid hiker who enjoys the outdoors all the time. Easy going, laid back and enjoying life!
A believer in the principal that we don't own the environment, we are just in charge of it. Leaving something for future generations should be everyone's goal.
Who I'd like to meet: People with a sense of adventure who can balance responsibility with the ability to be spontaneous.
