The World Needs More People Like Anthony

I will always remember my father's positive outlook on life and his generous nature. He was one who believed in the power of an upbeat attitude and was fond of saying "as long as the sun is shining you have nothing to complain about."

Anthony's tips for living a good, long life; 1) mind your own business; 2) smile; and 3) keep your fingers crossed.
 
I will take his positive attitude with me in all I do. He will be missed.

Summer 2020 - Backpacking Stats & Poem

Centennial Trail, Black Hills, South Dakota
Mountains, lakes, rivers, fields, ridge lines, and mammals. There was a lot to see and explore this summer. 

I hadn't planned on a big summer of backpacking but thanks to Mike's encouragement and support for a big thru-hike, that's the way it worked out.
