...My Favorites

There are a few reasons the pictures on the following pages were selected as my favorites, but mostly it's because of the memories they stir up in me. Almost every one, I can remember taking the picture. So, I enjoy going to these pages and re-living the moments.

It would be heart-warming to know the pictures are also stirring up memories of a trip you, the viewer, took in the same area. But, if you haven't had that luxury, I hope you will find some amount of pleasure anyway in viewing these.

Pick one of the pages to view. At the bottom will be a link to another page.

Page 9 - In the spring of 2015 I made my second trip to Alaska, this time only to the Inside Passage.That involved a wonderful road trip from Texas to Seattle, but due to rain I didn't get many pictures in much of the trip. (Now, see, I just gave myself away. A true photographer wouldn't let a diluge of rain stop them from getting great shots. In fact, some might even say the rain enhances their photos.) But this fair-weather chick likes the sun, warmth and blue sky! After the Alaska trip, I stayed several days in the Pacific Northwest. Then, in the summer I made a quick trip to Door County, Wisconsin, and later, in the fall I did some RV travel through New Mexico. Those trips are all reflected in the photos on this page. Thanks for visiting.

Page 12 - Most of the photos on these pages were taken on a trip starting in northern Indiana and making my way to New York, then up the coast through New England ending in Maine as far up as Lubec. My return trip was through New Hampshire and Vermont before making my way back to Texas. The following summer I followed my heart to Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, destinations I had been wanting to do for nearly ten years. A few other locations I've visited have been thrown in as well.
