“God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things that I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.” The “Serenity Prayer” Very well said, isn’t it? It looks and sounds so good on a plaque because it appears to be so simple, so “black […]
First of all, why a drone? If you like photographing waterfalls, you understand the issues, the fact that it is often difficult to impossible to find a good position to shoot the waterfall from. Either there is no land where you really want to be, there are trees or other obstructions limiting your […]
“Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we shall be. We know that, when He appears, we shall be like Him, because we shall see Him just as He is.” 1 John 3:2 A number of Christian teachers make a big deal about who God says that […]
“To you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been granted.. For whoever has, to him shall more be given, and he shall have an abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has shall be taken away from him.” Matthew 13:11-12 […]
The forecast has come down a little: swells at 16′ early, then down to 15′ at high tide, but that is somewhat higher than I have ever seen, and with the wind as high as it is, the waves should be great! Just praying for amazing and unique waves. The hard part will be deciding […]

I had camped last night in the (closed) Bonneville Campground, on Hwy 21 approx 40 miles west of Stanley, Idaho. Got up at 6:00 – the back hatch was difficult to open: it was iced shut! The rain had stopped and was just then beginning to snow – more like small snow pellets at first, […]
Last night I got the idea of driving back to the farm that I got the shot of on the Winter trip this past February. (current photo above) I looked up the GPS coordinates and entered them into GAIA gps, and that location is 35 miles south of where I am now, and right on […]
(the Falls on Avalanche Creek) Stayed overnight in Missoula, MT. Up at 5:00. Very good breakfast in the hotel. Got gas, then on the road @ 7:45; 36°. There was a nice glow on some of the clouds – made me wish I was out somewhere that I could take advantage of it. The rain […]
I was confused about the town of Jackson, WY (a few miles south of the Grand Teton NP entrance), and “Jackson Hole,” which I thought was a different town. I was using the TripAdvisor app to find a place for lunch, and drove thru Jackson thinking I would go to one of the restaurants listed […]
