The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge for the week of May 3, 2017. This week, share a photo that says Danger! to you. A view down the steep hill you’re about to bike, the last piece of cake that’s in danger of being eaten, signage in your town warning you about gigantic sword-toting shrubbery — there are lots of places you can […]
The weather has been warmer for a couple of days, which should be good news — but my morning hike was overshadowed by sadness this morning. Apparently a 13- or 14-year-old boy, out enjoying the warm weather on Sunday evening, jumped off one of the rocks into Lake Natoma below the Rainbow Bridge (seen above) and never resurfaced. The water is very […]
As I’ve mentioned before, back in January of this year a few large chunks of the bluffs came crashing down onto the American River Bike Trail near Negro Bar State Park. There have been a few more minor slides in the same area since then, and the word is that repairs may not even commence until sometime during the summer. […]
The theme of Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week is Winter — Water. You can take photos of anything that relates to the season of Winter or Water. Have fun with this challenge.

The theme of Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week is Autumn — Metal. You can take photos of anything that relates to the season of Autumn or metal. For metal I would like to see its strength and beauty. Have fun with this challenge. Seen while hiking in September and October: Seen at the flea market/auction:
The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge for the week of April 12, 2017. Much of photography is about discovery, and with discovery may come a surprise. I was hiking along a deserted dirt road at 6:30 in the morning and eyeing the blackberry bushes on my right, hoping to spot a sweet snack or two. I just happened to raise my glance […]
Since I’m currently mulling over my response to this week’s Weekly Photo Challenge from The Daily Post, I thought this episode of California’s Gold might make a good tie-in to the theme of Security. I have to admit I’ve never actually visited Folsom Prison — although I’m within walking distance of a pretty good view of the place, as you […]
This week the theme for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge is Summer — Fire. You can take photos of anything that relates to the seasons of Summer or anything to do with Fire. If you are wondering, the sun does count as fire in this case. Have fun with this challenge.
