Wet Washington at Mt. Baker
More drive-by photos, except this time I wasn’t driving – just looking out the very wet back window as we traveled to Mt. Baker in the Cascade Mountains to hike in the rain. The dutch influence on the farms in the Skagit Valley is obvious. Baker Lake is barely visable through the clouds. The logs…

Grand Canyon, North Rim Day 2
This was Day 2 of our trip to the Grand Canyon North Rim. I’m not pityfishing here, but I had just given up my crutches after surgery (hip replacement and one full inch added to the length of my leg to even out a discrepancy made worse by my first hip surgery 5 years ago) on…

Road Tripping through Arizona
In trying to get back in sequence with the Arizona/Utah trip last fall: I offer this road trip that took place between the Virgin River Campground and the Grand Canyon North Rim campground. The nifty thing about most of these photos, is that they were caught as I was following a pretty fast truck…

Death Valley – Day 2
Day 2 of my recent trip to Death Valley was a homeward driving-day. The other photographers stayed another day to capture that ever-elusive stunning dawn shot of the Mesquite Dunes. Click on Death Valley – Day 1 to refresh your memory of the first day. There were beautiful clouds – instead of the almost constant blue…

Death Valley – Day 1
If you’ve followed my recent posts, you know that this is my third trip to Death Valley in just over a month and the second trip was snow, so it hardly counts since we didn’t actually cross the two mountain ranges to get into the valley. The park is close enough that visits in late fall, winter…
