A Tuscon Photo Taking Extravaganza
One of my very best friends is a professor at the University of Arizona. He’s a master photographer, and while he rubs in my general inability to understand the basic mechanics of photography, I don’t let that get in my way of trying to get great photos when I see the chance.
As my travels for [...]

One of the best things about travel is all the fun that can surround what would otherwise be just blah work. When I have the opportunity to visit friends and family in a city I fly into, I usually jump at the chance. It’s one of the reasons I initially decided [...]
When You Travel Don’t Forget About Mom!
Are you as much a sap as I am when it comes to getting your mother (or father, I suppose) gifts from the places you travel to? I love to see the look on her face when I present her with something I know she loves. If it comes from Ghiradelli Square in San Francisco, [...]

Normally I won’t go out of my way to get [...]
Sunday Departure to PHX
Ugh. I’ve really gotten to that point in life where I don’t care to do much of anything on Sundays. Not because religious challenges or anything like that.

The Month Starts Fresh and New
After having traveled as much as I’ve done the past many years, things begin to get into a nice, familiar routine. As stated a time or two in these posts, I tend to spend the first week to 10 days at my home office planning, scheduling and generally preparing to go out on the road [...]
