Driving and Crying
Driving and crying is the title of a song and if I’m not mistaken, a band. I’m happy to be on a roadtrip so you hardly catch me crying. I like turning off the outside and just listening to music as I roll along. These photographs are intended to give you my feelings when I…

Desert Flowers
I really like this picture but I didn’t see it until about the fourth time around in the culling process. It’s just that subtle. It was very hard to edit. Too much movement in either direction — lightening or darkening — and the picture is ruined. That can be a problem for me because I’m…

Desert Rose
As you know I can’t be trusted. I change on a whim. Sometimes without a good reason. This time I have a good reason, for me. Yes. I’m still working on the picture a day project. No. Not all of the pictures are ready for prime time. However, I discovered a huge file of desert…

After talking to a number of our friends I know that they feel the same way. Hopefully, our neighbors…

It Never Ends
L et’s be clear. Yesterday sucked. Again. What do I care about most since I consider it to be the foundation of everything else? The environment. What did The-Less-Than-Supreme-Court do yesterday? They shut down the EPA. The Environmental Protection Agency. What the hell are these faux judges trying to do? Some people say with all…

Creativity
I want sushi right now. It costs more than a house. Instead, we bought a new espresso maker. It’s the bomb. It’s really for touring, but we just had to test it before we hit the road. So, we bought five pounds of Lavazza beans. Five pounds ought to be enough to test it, right?…
