My English teacher in high school decided that I was best placed in the "average" English class; in
her judgement I wasn't "AP" material. I was a baggy-panted, skateboarding, punk rocker who would
have no use for her literate teachings.
Mostly, my writing, is about proving her wrong.
It's also about taking a different, often humorous, perspective on the world in which we exist. I've
been rambling around mountains for most of my life, and while perched at the edge of some Earth's
amazing vistas, I've found inspiration.
So here it is, A Perspective From Higher Ground, known only to the condors and the climbers...and
to those who don't listen to the voices that say, "No you can't."
