Whether it's whaling in a freighter canoe north of Tuktoyaktuk, setting up a helicopter charter company, climbing the corporate ladder, travelling to far-away places, milking goats on our Prince Edward Island farm or sailing around the West Coast--this journey through life only happens once, and I'm enjoying every bit of it. So what comes next? Sharing the adventures through my writing.
