About The Book
My journey from the corn fields and cow pies of Minnesota to a lifetime of work, travel and adventure across Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, and the Americas, fulfilled a childhood dream.
For many, life just seems to "happen". The dreams and aspirations of youth get buried beneath decades of routine, predictability and boredom. Determined that this not become my fate, I viewed life as being only seven days long. Each day of the week represented a decade of life, and I packed each one with as many unique experiences and adventures as possible.
