I'm a newspaperman and writer living on the Massachusetts coast. I love the ocean, but I'd rather be in the woods.
This summer, I'll be climbing all 48 of New Hampshire's 4,000-foot mountains to raise money for Kestrel Educational Adventures.
Through its classroom, outdoors and after-school work, Kestrel Educational Adventures connects hundreds of kids across the North Shore to the natural world around them, encourages thinking about nature as a part of normal life rather than an exotic destination, and nurtures the next generation of outdoors stewards.
