In this third volume, I continue to share my stories of adventure and growing up in a time when being outside and a part of the natural world were what I looked forward to most. Having spent

so much time in my early years being treated for polio, my craving for nature was all-consuming. The viewpoint I had from my wheelchair gave me a different perspective on life,

which I do not regret. I hope you will find these stories to be heartwarming and thought-provoking. They are all true!

Many people in my life have given me much to appreciate, and I cannot thank them enough.
