Skydiving -- This is by far the largest section at Adventure Living. Which sort of makes sense since this web site started out as a site dedicated to sharing skydiving information. The skydiving section contains all the information you need to start skydiving. It also has many stories written about the training process. These stories let people understand a little more about what the training is like and what it means to skydive. Of course, nothing will ever fully prepare anyone for that experience, but this is a good start. This section also contains stories about other types of skydives including solo dives, night dives, jet jumps, and so forth. It also contains lots of skydiving photos.
SCUBA -- This section is fairly new. I got my certification during the summer of 1996, and have started writing stories about my dives. I have included stories about my certification dives, some other open water dives, and stories about Evette Murray's certification dives. At the end of each story (other than the certification dives), I'm going to include directions to the place, and the phone number of a dive shop in the area. Hopefully as time passes and I get more stories, divers can use this section to find out about cool dive spots. Of course, any stories, photos, or information I receive from other divers will also be posted here.
Whitewater -- I originally started this section with stories by Ann Pellagrini about rafting through the Grand Canyon and by Lucy Monahan about rafting in West Virginia. Since, I have started adding my own stories (as of this writing, 23 Aug 97, only one so far). While I do expect to raft more rivers and write stories about those adventures, I'm guessing that I will do more SCUBA diving than white water rafting. I'm relying on my visitors to expend this section.
Expeditions -- This section is for any stories, information, or photographs of adventures that required travel. For example, Lucy Monahan took a trip from Kathmandu to Bombay, I took a trip to Germany, and so forth. This is one section that will expand slowly but constantly.
Sailing -- This is a collection of photographs and a short story by Jon Nash. He is a professional maritime photographer and this story is about his ride in the 1996/97 BT Race around the world.
Bicycling -- This is a collection of stories and photographs about Wm Kendall's bicycle tour of the Texas Gulf Coast. This section also contains his story about hiking into Unionville, NY.
Medical -- On Jan 21, 1996 I had a really bad ski jumping accident. Due to the number of requests I received, I have posted a story about the accident and my long recovery afterward.
Webmasters -- This webmaster's guide is designed to assist people creating their first web site and to help webmasters promote and maintain their web site.
Internet -- This is a collection of information designed to assist people new to the internet. It will continue to grow whenever I have time to write more articles. Hopefully people will find it of use.
Thanks! -- This is where I thank all the people who help build this site and keep it moving forward.
About me -- Just a little bit of information about me.
Recognition -- I try to keep this page current, but often lag behind. It lists some of the recognition this site has received and lists most of the sites that link to here.
Guestbook -- This is one of the places where people share their adventures. I love to see all these posts about people getting out and experiencing life!
Reviews -- This is the most frequently updated page in the whole site. Every week I pick a site that I enjoyed visiting and post a short review. This section also contains all the previous reviews plus a large number of links to adventure related sites. This is a great place to start a surfing session.
Slide Show -- I originally designed this section for people surfing via WebTVs, it takes advantage of a couple of features specific to WebTVs. However, it does work in all graphic browsers (such as Netscape Navigator and Communicator, Microsoft Internet Explorer, etc). It is a large collection of photographs from this site shown one at a time on automatically updating pages.
