About Me:
I'm a Colorado boy, married to my wifey for over 30 years. This network is a brilliant idea, Todd. Thanks. I love anything that has to do with the outdoors, fly fishing, mountain biking, drumming, backpacking and enjoying God's Creation. I am still recovering from a near fatal bike/auto crash (the auto won) last August and am headed to Kyangwali on 31-May along with Beth, Aimee & Claire. This will be my first trip to Africa but I have a feeling that it won't be my last! We may be retiring from our Corporate Lives within the next few years to do the Africa gig. God is driving that direction. My wife is the brains behind Think Humanity & I'm just her worker bee. I really believe Bono when he said that "this could be the generation that puts an end to 'stupid poverty.'" Beth I have two wonderful kiddies (grown up by now) that also live in Colorado. God Bless ya, Todd, for setting up this website!

[I] believe that's Matthew 25:40". Bono's Keynote at the 2006 National Prayer Breakfast.

Post Africa, a changed Western Perspective...

My problems… I’ve just returned from Africa and now have this startling new perspective. I knew already of this perspective, but not from a first hand experience. Now my eyes have seen and all of my senses are acutely more in tune with reality… I awake to the soft music of my alarm clock, nestled in my Queen size bed in a beautiful house where the air is always at 70 degrees and clean. My feet touch the carpeted floor as I stretch and I put on my comfy bathrobe to make my way to my bath room. I… Continue
