It’s a Zoo Out There: giraffes

OMG these pictures are so old! I took them at least 7 years ago back at the San Francisco Zoo.

Prairie dogs with a dog

Yeah. I tried to take some pictures of these prairie dogs while on a walk with my “actual” dog.

Yosemite over and over and over again…

It’s been a while since I posted anything from Yosemite, and these photographs are rather old.

Icicle poetry

Just a quick post with some icicles I photographed by my work using a macro lens.

St. John Island: in and out of NPS territory

It’s hard to know when you are on National Park Services grounds since about 60% of the island is part of the Virgin Islands National Park. So it’s just one post for the whole island.

St. Thomas: You have to see it to believe it

I hope you get the reference to that Bible passage, but it’s also a little nod to my ex-fiancée who says I never believe her until she is proved right. Call me a skeptic! Ha!

White sands in the desert

You know white beaches with blue water… well, this is a bit different. Still white dunes but with no water. Breathtaking nonetheless! (Oh and it’s the last post before I post some more current stuff. Thanks for bearing with me!)

Still catching up: Guadalupe Mountains NP

I still have a couple posts to put up on here before I get to my most recent trip to the US Virgin Islands. Hang tight!

Big Bend NP: access to the Rio Grande

It’s actually kind of a surreal experience. I drove into Big Bend NP from the eastern side and made my way to some pretty nice views of the Rio Grande before coming back out through the western side of the park.

Amistad NRA: ironic name…

I find this so ironic. This National Recreation Area is called Amistad (friendship in Spanish). It’s located right at the border with Mexico in Southern Texas.

Lake Meredith is BIG!

But then again… everything is bigger in Texas, right?

2,500-mile Texas/New Mexico excursion (keep scrolling)

It took me long enough to get back on the road, but I was finally able to take a trip. I took a longer trip this time: Southern Colorado, Western Texas and Central New Mexico.

CO-470 adventures

I did a thing a few months ago… I hiked from my place in Littleton, CO to Highlands Ranch.

Curecanti NRA in the books

Though I would love to go back and explore more of the area.

Black Canyon of the Gunnison

Today I’m taking you to the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. Some say they find it more impressive than the Grand Canyon.
