                There are several reasons for my life being molded as it is; love of outdoor living, love of nature, and because of my great love of pioneers (traditionally, Daniel Boone was a distant relative of mine, so all my life has had a strong influence on me), concentrated influence because of my great love of the West and the Colorado Rockies around me, and Denver (my friends called me “Denver Don,” “The Colorado Kid,” and “Rocky Mountain Red”).

                Arranged as near chronologically as possible, the foregoing and following constitute my autobiography.
                Five states lived in: Colorado, Michigan, California, Florida, Maine
