I returned from my two week road trip to the Rockies and other parks last Sunday. It was: AMAZING!!! I have so many photos to go through and so much to blog about! Ok, so first, below are the images of the signs of the new parks I’ve visited. Each will have its own gallery […]

Last weekend was the annual Ventura Art and Street Painting Festival in Ventura Harbor. I didn’t get a chance to go on Saturday or Sunday, so I woke up really early and went down to the harbor on Monday morning to look at the chalk paintings on the sidewalk. I wasn’t disappointed. Below are some […]

Below are two more images from my recent trip to Yosemite. The first I took after hiking to the top of Pothole Dome in Tuolumne Meadows. The vistas and views from up there are amazing! The second is of the cascade of water behind Pothole Dome. If you hike to the back of the dome, […]

Below is an image of one of my favorite tarns in the Yosemite high country. If you’re headed northeast on Tioga Road, right before the Mono Pass Trailhead, on the right is a nice tarn with a fairly large turnout. I thought I knew the name of this tarn, but for some reason I don’t […]

Below are two more images from my recent short trip to Yosemite. Lower Yosemite Falls was absolutely beautiful! Well, it should look great because of all the snow that the park had this last winter. The other is of Tuolumne Meadows in the high country. It was so nice to see the park in a […]

I was at Ventura Harbor this morning enjoying the morning air and watching the landscape light up. Below are some images from this morning. As I’ve heard it said before: “Life is in the details.” I still have a lot of things to do before my September trip to the Rockies. There’s a lot of […]

Below is an image I took in the high country of Yosemite in June of 2015. I love the Yosemite high country soooo much!!! Looks like I’m not going to Yosemite until October this year. I’m a little sad about it, but from what I’ve been reading about the park, it’s been really crowded since […]

I spent an early morning this weekend in Ventura Harbor. I like watching the sunrise and walk around the area in the cool morning air. Below are two images I took that morning.  I used my iPhone to take the images.  I really need to learn how to use the camera functions better with the […]

I’ve been waiting…and waiting…and waiting for Tioga Pass to open. It’s been closed because of the amount of snow it received during this last winter, but it may open soon. I’m hoping to get up there for a couple of days soon. Below is an image of one of my favorite areas along the pass. […]
