LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT
Cowles Mountain Peak, San Diego. (From height, Jennifer 'lowers' herself to Jeffrey-level.).
'LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT: WHAT IN THE WORLD IS HIKE-ABOUT?'
Hike-about is an adventure that commenced June 2010. After storing our household movables, ridding ourselves of a house but retaining our 'home' together, we set off with the purpose of hiking in different parts of the world, not forgetting the home country, the USA.
Our primary focus is hiking to mountain peaks but any challenging hike will do just fine. Extended stays enable us to enjoy and experience living in various places amongst differing cultures. Hike-about has evolved into a way of life. It's also a process of discovery, both the world and ourselves.
We work and live 'on the road' but return to the city in which our grandchildren reside, every couple of months. This provides us the wonderful opportunity to be with them as well as a child or two, even three and of course, friends.
By the end of 2023, the blog contained over 1,560 hikes (less than that actually undertaken), each a set of pictures with stories and anecdotes from the trails. An index to the right allows the viewer to identify earlier experiences.
Finally, we are often asked about the journey's end. Our reply, as accurate as we can state, is: "When we are either forced to cease through health issues or the enjoyment level no longer reaches our aspirations, we will hang up the boots."
"A Life Experience As No Other: Dare to Seize the Day Together", published by Fulton Books, depicts our life on the road and mountains until the beginning of 2017. It has developed 'exponentially' since then.

A View into Argentina: Some highlights from 2018.

64:26 Portugal: Geres: Lake Canicada stride, a view of the clouds below us.
A world of clouds in a very clouded world.
Looking down over the roof of a house viewing clouds high in the sky. Hmm!
What's not real in the photograph?
Swan Lake.
A more exclusive part of the lake.
Delightful.
A home on land and water.
A second showing of what I believe to be one of our finest photographs...bridge reflections at our best. Is that in fact water or forest?
Seeking to separate reality from dreams...Why?
Taking a boat-ride on a fast-building rough sky. Looking down to view above.
Tranquility.
A different perspective of ("our") bridge.
Back to reality as we leave reflections for another place, another time.
Cheers,
64.20 Portugal: Geres: PR7 part 2 opposite Sao Bento Church plus tail at the top, added. How about a splash of color?
The trees at the peak close to the swing.
Commencement point trees which are on view from most positions on the circuit of PR7.
Never enough color; we will absorb every shade gladly.
One of the 'smaller arms' of Lake Canicada.
On the way down, we were struck by the simplicity and yet majesty of these couple of trees.
The tall grass was amazing; it too made us look closely and revel in its beauty and mystery.
Jen glides through it which seems most appropriate.
Next two photographs show us returning to a village...always built on steep mountain slopes. A perspective of village and mountain peak ("swing peak")
Cheers,
