Red sky at night
Even though the clouds looked amazing all day I was rushing around so much I never had a chance to shoot them. But I couldn’t resist the gorgeous, colorful sunset this evening.

The Adventure Continues… Headwaters Forest Reserve
Here’s another beautiful corner of California I’m adding to my list of must-see places. I certainly remember hearing all the arguments over preserving the habitat for spotted owls and similar species a few years back. But the old-growth redwood trees themselves are such a special treasure, and California would never be the same if we allowed them to disappear. Join […]
Mexico Monday, Week 21
A couple of memories really stand out for me about our trips to Mexico in the early 1970s. One is that a different color and type of fabric was chosen for the dresses worn by the women of the team each summer. One year the color was a bright reddish-orange; another year it was lime green.

Old man and the sea
In my post last Saturday titled House of Sand and Fog, I described how I lost a bunch of images I had shot on our Wednesday afternoon at the coast. Well, I wasn’t the only one dealing with serious disappointment that day. The Big Guy, fishing with a brand new heavy surf rod and coping with pain from a torn rotator […]
