Tokyo Tower

On this rainy day the Tokyo Tower is somewhat shrouded in the clouds. The Japanese speak of the Tower like the French do of their famed Eiffel. I really don't the Tokyo variety should be spoken about in the same sentence.

Duomo Bell Tower, Florence

Walking down the street on a weekend morning in Florence is a treat. No one is out and you have the streets to yourself. I saw the beautiful bell tower gleaming in the sun above the buildings that line this street.

San Francisco Wharf


The most famous area of San Francisco, the wharf is the tourist trap of this city. It is great to walk through and take in all of the smells. Grab a steamed Dungenous Crab at any of the stalls.

Virgin Gorda

Before I went to the Caribbean I didn't realize how dry and desert like some of these Islands are. This is the Western side of Virgin Gorda in the BVI and as you can see there are cactus here. This is looking toward Tortola and down below are the famous Bath's.

The tide rolls in and out almost a half a mile on this island in Indonesia. Liz and I went out with a local this day and he took us all over the island. He even brought us to his home to meet his children.

Angel Fire, New Mexico

From up on Angel Fire Mountain I am looking down into the valley that sits at 8000 feet. What a gorgeous area that sits at the Southern most side of the Rocky Mountains.

Looking down at Tomales Bay in the Point Reyes National Seashore an hour and half north of San Francisco you see beauty all around. This bay is connected to the Pacific and is situated in a perfect region to grow wine.

Visiting Iceland in the winter is difficult because the sun is only out for 5 hours a day. This picture was taken at 11 AM at dawn just on the outskirts of Reykjavik. I thought these statues were very interesting.

Lake Placid



A view of Lake Placid from a boat dock near the Lake Placid Lodge show how large this lake really is. As you can see by the lake's glassy surface it lives up to it's name.
