About the Creator

We all just create something out of something else; to create something out of nothing would be truly divine, would it not?

    I hiked/backpacked, fished, and camped all over the South Washington Cascades in my youth. I was just 19 when St. Helens blew its top, and the ash rained down on us in Vancouver. I was actually snow camping just above Spirit Lake the winter of 1980. Such memories.
