In the beginning...

there was a little boy named Tim. That little boy lived in a very small town in the Midwest and didn't get to see a lot of different things. As that little boy grew in to a tall man, he realized there was much to see and do and longed to experience it. It started as small trips in college, visiting other campuses as a member of his university's forensics team. That only whetted his appetite and he began to take bigger excursions to more interesting places. He realized there was so much more than the Bible Belt had to offer. So he and Bert (his trusty travel Beaver) packed up his Baretta, drove west, and landed in California. Suddenly, something came alive in that once little boy. Life seemed to have a purpose, experiences were abundant, and he started gathering them with gusto.

This blog is started so he can relay those experiences to others. Photos, stories, and lessons learned hope to come alive. And perhaps he'll learn more about himself along the way.
