After reading about the dark depths of Lyn’s fears in his book, I felt compelled to write about my own and when I was forced to confront them. While he conquered the waters of British Columbia, I attempted to overcome the “diving board” at Smith Rock, Oregon. I’m no scaredy-cat and (as Lyn so astutely pointed out) innocence in the sense of fearlessness can work for you. Travel writer Laurie Gough once told me, "If you don’t think bad things will happen to you, they won’t.” This is just the kind of naïveté that has gotten me happily where I am today.
