"J. Alan Hendricks...The Adventurist"


When I first saw the Title: "The Adventurist", I immediately had to visit that site... I loved the concept of an 'Adventurist'...
J. Alan Hendricks promotes real enthusiasm and has a distinct objective of "Promoting exploration, education, and personal challenge through adventure" within his blog writings. The Adventurist started out in 2006, with an intention to advocate that, as Alan says, "Life is an adventure. Live it"...
He also highlights that his blog has , "Shown me that people care about a lot of the same things I do. The environment, nature, and adventure". Themes I certainly relate to myself...
When embarking upon this creative journey, Alan wrote back in November 2006, "The term 'Adventure' means many things to many different people. It could be a quest, a life statement, a great undertaking of sorts or it could just mean something new"..."An Adventurist to me encompasses someone who is strong willed, determined, and won't let anything stand in their way of achieving what they have set out to do. They look for the excitement, the thrill, the ADVENTURE of doing something that most people would never do"..."This blog is about History, Science, Ecology, Nature, and of course... Man's quest to delight in it all. So grab your pickax, throw on those snowshoes.. or grab a kayak and let this adventure begin".
Now there is a great deal of energy and enthusiasm in these words... Meanings to create motivation by as well...
And with all of this "The Adventurist" has become, for many of us, a part of our days journeys.
J. Alan Hendricks efforts are ones of giving back, and passing forward, to the Adventure Community, by keeping us current out there. Hike on over and enjoy some time with him...
