I launched wildhorses.com in 1995, named after a small company I shared with Sidney Damon and Laney Stephens.

In 2003, Sandy Johan redesigned and reorganized the site. We have followed her design in all our subsequent pages and sites.

In 2005 we started a second site: pamsyogafitness.com, which offers yoga-related short articles, updates about my class, free online yoga lessons and:
Peter's custom sports cars and hot rods,
Nancy's Yoga classes,
Susie's poetry,
Joe's classic rock and roll band.

Now we have added some other sites:
Esalen Photographs from the 1960s
Gestalt Golf
Lazy Compost
Red Lotus Threads
Coming soon? Elder True Adventure.

I hope you enjoy these pages. Hello out there!
