Meet The Adventurers
Paul "The Dad"
Proud husband to Beth and Father of Mark, Claire and Lois. Paul has a Masters degree in Geology from the University of Toronto and spent the majority of his life working as an oil executive before retiring in 2004. Since then, he's started three successful small public oil companies, and enjoys traveling the world with his wife. When he is in Canada, he can be found at the family home in Calgary or at the cabin in British Columbia. Paul started the dream of climbing to the summit of Kilimanjaro when he took his 10-year-old daughter Lois (me!) to an Imax in 1994.

Rich "The Husband"
Rich hails from Stittville, NY and has been happily married to Lois for nearly five years. He has a degree in Biology from St. John Fisher University in Rochester, NY and is a USMC Ch-53E helicopter pilot in his spare time (haha). Rich first began dreaming about climbing Kili when he heard Lois talk so passionately about making the journey herself during their dating days. Since then, he's deployed twice to Iraq and Afghanistan and once to Japan in the wake of the earthquake and tsunami. Rich is excited to have the chance to return to the Eastern Hemisphere as a tourist.

Lois "The Wife and Daughter"
That's me! I'm the author of this blog and the dreamer that has carried this crazy idea with me for the last 15 years. I'm equally proud to be happily married to Rich and also to be the daughter of Paul and Beth. I have a degree in Journalism from St.Bonaventure University in NY and an MBA from San Diego State University. I love living each precious day like the gift from God that it is, and can not wait to embark on the journey of a lifetime with my Husband and Dad!
