This is one of my favorite photographs, taken during a May 2003 trip to the Grand Canyon. This is a view of Hermit Creek, with the canyon of the Colorado River lying in the distance, running right to left across the middle of this scene.

2012-01-01 This website was mostly redone during December 2011. But more clean-up is needed, a photo presentation system will have to be found, and blogging must start back up after a several year hiatus. Good resolutions! :) [It's May 2012 and still no action to fix things, but a new system is being developed later in the month, when hopefully this notice will disappear.]
