One of the things I enjoy most about traveling to a new area is being surprised and discovering the unexpected. Last weekend I decided to travel to southeastern Washington to attend the wedding of my friend Tom Weaver’s son Joe. The wedding was in Pullman Washington, home of Washington State University. The easiest route for [...]
On January 20th a new journey began for my wife Nancy and me. It will be an arduous course with challenges that will test our will, our faith and our strength. It began on December 22, 2009 when we learned she had breast cancer once again. Her first bout was eleven years ago and she [...]

I can’t tell you how elated I was when the upgraded version 3.0 of my iPhone launched and this foreign little icon of a microphone jumped out at me on the screen. It was a voice recorder. A built-in microphone. Do you realize what this has done for my world? No more sticky notes! No [...]
I am back after about a month’s hiatus. Things in my life were clucking along just fine, then May 2 I lost my father. No matter how prepared you are for a time like this, it still turns your world upside down. He had some health issues. Most folks at 83 years-of-age do have problems. [...]
This site is normally reserved for fun, crazy, light-hearted and exciting episodes in my life and my photographic career. But today I pause in remembrance of those that lost their lives at Columbine High School on this date ten years ago. My prayers go out to all those families and to all of us that [...]
