| On Baffin Island |
| I'm a Canadian teacher and Venturer advisor, who spends as much time as I can in the Rockies -- hiking, canoeing, cycling, and caving. I'm the Advisor of the 24th Park Allen Venturers (a fine group of young men), a member of the Alberta Speleological Society, and an elementary School teacher in Edmonton, Alberta. I try to make my summers active ones. In the summer of 2000, I hiked on Baffin Island with a friend, cycled the Olympic Penninsula in Washington with my Venturers, and helped survey a small cave in Mt. Robson Provincial Park. We spent Spring Break, 2001 in Moab, Utah, mountain biking and hiking in the desert there. What a break from an Alberta winter! That summer we did a 117 km long canoe trip in BC's Bowrons. It was a great trip. Later, some friends and I spent a week in South Dakota, caving. Wow! |
| Dennis and I flew to Baffin Island in 2000, to hike in Auyuittuq National Park Reserve -- a rare treat, and very different to the Rockies we are both used to. Seas of ice, enormous cliffs, tumbling glaciers and numbing streams -- this park has it all -- except trees! What an experience! |

| My Family |
| I was born, raised and educated in Lethbridge, Alberta. I'm really proud of my parents, who still live there. My dad was a successful business man, and held his commercial pilot's license until recently. My mother, who is now calling herself "Cyber Granny," is a master of bridge, salads, family dinners and literature. My son, Tim, lives in Kingston, and my sister, Judy, works as a college administrator. Rob, my brother, ably manages the business my dad built. |
