"For most of history, man has had to fight nature to survive; in this century, he is beginning to realize that, in order to survive, he must protect it." —Jacques-Yves Cousteau. Cousteau is one of my childhood heroes. He brought to life the beauty and wonders of life under the sea for all of us and helped increase our understanding of our home, Mother Earth.

My Journey: Some Stops Along the Way

A Single Step

“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step” – Lao – Tzu

I have had several careers during my journey. When I was a child, my brothers and I would seize every opportunity to spend some time in the fields and woods near our house. We went fishing whenever we could. We loved being outdoors. So I think it’s only natural (pun intended) that I went to college at the University of Miami and got a BS in Biology, thus becoming a biologist, an ecologist, and a naturalist. After graduating college, I worked as an ecologist for many years in the ’70s and ’80s.

My Journey With Nature Blog

My journey with nature blog’s goal is to encourage us to work together to go green. To deliberately spend time in nature, to restore and preserve our environment. My blogs are based on things I remember from my past working in the field as an ecologist in South Florida, about influential figures who affected my journey and about events happening today. I reflect upon nature for inner peace, to remain connected to the living world and to offer some things that can be done to help restore and maintain nature’s balance. You will also find that I write fun stories about plants and animals, that are informative and amusing all in the same.
