• Here's a story about my trip to WA's Stirling Ranges in May 2002.
• Some tips for new bushwalkers.
• Rebuilding a Trip 35 camera.
• Some places I've been lucky enough to visit on business trips.
  
• In 1996, my Dad had a quad bypass heart operation and due to complications we almost lost him. This story is his recollection of some of these events.

And here's a little about me:
