Introduction	I was a 61 year old baby boomer who had it made. I was enjoying golf and kayaking and I had pretty much everything I needed to retire comfortably on the beautiful southern Oregon coast. My problem was… I wasn’t happy. I didn’t have a focus or purpose in my life that was fulfilling. In January of 2011 that all changed, as God gave my life focus and a dream. To be brief, this is that dream: To finish a book I started several years ago. (Finished first draft of book on 4-22-11) To market this book I am going to promote it by walking and hitchhiking across America for two years. 100% of the funds generated from the sale of books on the road will go to orphanages. My plan is to speak in churches, schools, libraries, nursing homes, civic groups and to anyone else who will listen to my story. That’s it… walk and talk a little and hopefully help feed some kids. *************************** I left on my journey on Thursday, 10/27/2011 *************************** My profile photo and the one in the header were taken on my Mission trip to Uganda in 2007.
