I have been wanting to get up to Georgetown and Guanella Pass to hike Bierstadt since being reminded of it on 14ers.com. Twenty years has passed by since I have climbed a 14er for real and I didn't want another year to slip by without feeling the exhilaration of a summit. I knew the pass … Continue reading Bierstadt

Milestone
Well I finally did it. 3000 images on iStock by Getty Images. This has been my goal for a couple of years now, but one problem after another built a wall of resistance that I just could not climb. I uploaded my first image on July 31, 2006 after an article was published in a … Continue reading Milestone
Winter Solstice 2014
The Winter Solistice, the event which converges all the forces of orbit, angle and rotation to bring about the end of the Northern Hemisphere's plunge into the darkness of winter will officially hit Colorado this afternoon at 4:03 p.m. Mountain Time. The science of it all is complex, but for me it is simple, the … Continue reading Winter Solstice 2014
The Road Ahead
Day three of radiation therapy. Can't see any improvement yet, but she needed less pain medication yesterday so that is a good sign. Three down and seven to go. The beauty of autumn is quickly passing as the wind and the hail are taking their toll on the brittle golden leaves. The mountains will be … Continue reading The Road Ahead

All the medical crisis we have encountered in 2014 have drained my strength and my creativity leaving me bereft of ideas for Examiner articles. I have struggled to come up with enough ideas this year to meet my one article a month minimum. However … Continue reading Quiet Time

Undaunted, I have been taking the camera along faithfully as I push the wheelchair on our errands. It finally … Continue reading Fox and Deer
Making the Best of Things
Memorial Day weekend, the unofficial start of summer. As usual the skies have opened up with a deluge of rain as if heaven itself is mourning the loss of so many brave men and women in battle. For me, today is day four of Making the Best of Things (MTBOT). Tricia's rehab is coming along … Continue reading Making the Best of Things
April Snow
It must be something I have carried forward from my childhood. Whenever it snows I just have to get out in it. I believe the love for snow may have been passed down from my father as well. I remember during the worst blizzards Dad would make the anticipated announcement, "We're going to get milk.". … Continue reading April Snow
Spring Again
The storms of early April have finally abated and sunshine has returned to Ute Pass. I am getting a late start today and even though I knew that all the wildlife would have already finished their morning feeding and bedded down for a nap, I need the exercise and the climb up the mountain as … Continue reading Spring Again
