From the archives

Summer of '03, went for a ride through central Colorado, stopping long enough at Loveland Pass to snap this photo.

Watching the 20-year surf from Swami's

The week before Christmas, 15 - 20 foot waves on California beaches had many calling this a 20-year surf. These are from Swami's in Encinitas.

At Swami's from the cliff looking south. West-facing beach meant some of best waves in SoCal can be found here.

I haven't a clue. In the cliff garden at Swami's.
Last of Christmas in San Diego.

Christmas golf, pt. 2

Also played two rounds as a guest here. Nice greens and lots of water.

Christmas golf

Managed to get three rounds of golf in four days of my Christmas vacation in sunny San Diego.

An all purpose bench

Another photo from the Thanksgiving trip to Chicago. If taken today, this would show a winter wonderland under a foot +/- of snow. Still waiting for our first snowfall out here; maybe soon.

Home of Yours Truly When I Was a Kid

Lived here until I was about 10.

Home of the White Sox

First of several photos from the trip to Chicago for Thanksgiving.

Wood for the fireplace

Always wear gloves when hauling in wood for the fireplace.

Grilled tuna & eggplant

Always liked tuna on the grill; the eggplant is a newly acquired taste.

Pine hawk

Saw him land atop a pine tree east of Bayfield. Call him the Pine hawk.

Go-Go White Sox

It's been a long time coming. Chicago White Sox are World Series Champions. You can take the kid out of the South-side, but you can't take the White Sox out of the kid.

A trip through Boulder

On a weekend in Denver, we headed northwest for a daytrip to Estes Park. On the way, we stopped for a quick stroll through downtown Boulder. Here's the movie theater.

Early snow in the San Juans

A jeep ride up La Plata Canyon
to catch the early season snow
before it melts and the fall colors
before they fade.

Dog on the stairs

Who's there? Got any food?
Tell me if you've heard this one: "A horse walks into a tavern and the bartender says, "So, why the long face?"
C'mon, you got a Milk Bone in there somewhere.

In the backyard

These grew without any help from me. The top image is a columbine, not sure about the bottom one.

At the park

A quick ride through Colorado National Monument west of Grand Junction.
