LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT

Eastern Cape, South Africa: Storms River region.

'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.

45.05 Arizona: Tonto Basin: A Sunset hike at the 'Vineyard' above Roosevelt Lake.



When we were younger and very 'clever', we would not have thought much of this. Now that we are much older and far less smart, we see the beauty in the image above Roosevelt Lake. One can only hope we continue to 'deteriorate'.




Captivated by the Sonoran Desert.




We went out in the late afternoon to capture a sunset, high above the lake.




One of my favorites as Jenni trudges up a sharp ascent with the striking colors, and combination of both natural and man-made structures behind.




The sun still too high but not bad at all.




Facing east.




On our return, heading north and delighted at the view.








Delightful late afternoon setting.




Blue water, happy hearts.




A last fling from the sun illustrates the danger of a misstep.




Subtle changes as the day ages.




Blue waters, steep climb as Jenni makes her way up.




Just a delightful place.



Cheers,


Jenni and Jeffrey
