SIBERIAN DAUGHTER IN LAW, INTERNATIONAL WEIGHT LIFTING CHAMPION. MY SIBERIAN RAISED DAUGHTER IN LAW

SHAKELTON'S ANTARCTIC BURIAL SITE

WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT

Growing up in ranch country in Northern Nevada, I dreamed of homesteading in Alaska but instead detoured to Utah and then New York for my book education. This real-world learning followed me, much like the themes captured in John Wilkerson's photography. Here's a peek at that ongoing journey, which I like to think of as a perpetual photography exhibition. Why is it perpetual? Both my parents lived to 93, and my favorite aunt said 'so long' at 103. There’s lots of dreaming, traveling, learning, joy, and sharing ahead, just as one might reflect on an Antarctic burial site.
