Green Sunbather, Hawaii, USA

With all that is occurring right now in the world, Skip and I have decided to pause our long distance travel.  We will still share some local and past events with you over time. This will give me time to rebuild the website – I know you will enjoy new ideas we have planned!  But in the meantime, we just wanted to say stay safe and healthy, and take time to be kind to others during this stressful time.  Thank you for all your support in following our adventures!

Kealakekua Bay, Hawaii, USA

Kealakekua Bay, Hawaii, USA

We are back from traveling and I can’t wait to share more photographs! We visited the Island of Hawaii – a beautiful island!! At Kaupulehu Ahupua’a, Kealakekua Bay,  (along the Four Seasons Resort Hualalai in Kailua-Kona) – there is a beautiful easy walking public path that winds around the resort. The segment of the trail is also identified as a traditional route for the huaka’i po, a nighttime procession of the spirits of deceased residents of the area. You can walk for miles and see spectacular sights! I captured this great view at the beginning of the trail – isn’t … Read more

St. Joseph Church, Maui, USA

St. Joseph Church, Maui, USA

While traveling the backside of Haleakela (Maui, Hawaii, USA) on the Road to Hana (between mile markers 33 and 34), we unexpectantly discovered St. Joseph Church that was established in 1862! Located adjacent to the church are ruins of the Rectory as well as the cistern. In researching this church, we discovered that it continues to serve – the 150th Anniversary Mass and Celebration was in 2012. Another interesting fact is Charles Lindberg’s grave is adjacent to this church.   If you are in the area on the Road to Hana – it is definitely worth a stop to check … Read more

Port Townsend Aero Museum, Washington, USA

One of our favorite destinations in Port Townsend, Washington, USA is the Port Townsend Aero Museum. This is a fantastic collection of antique and classic aircraft. But in addition to showcasing these amazing aircraft specimens, this museum has an incredible Youth Program that provides training and education to young adults. Can you imagine flying these – aren’t these amazing aircraft!!?!?              

Stanza dell’Incendio di Borgo, Rome, Italy

Stanza dell'Incendio di Borgo, Rome, Italy

I thought you would enjoy some of my favorite photographs I captured when we were traveling in Europe a few years ago! I captured this breath taking close-up while we were at the Vatican, Rome, Italy. This artwork is one of the many murals in a room called “Stanza dell’Incendio di Borgo”. The Vatican website indicates that this room was used during the time of Julius II (pontiff from 1503 to 1513). Isn’t this artwork absolutely incredible?!?!?!

Red Amaryllis - Renton, Washington, USA

In the Pacific Northwest (Washington, USA), the days are getting darker much earlier, and we are in our typical rainy, cloudy, cooler November. So to bring a bit of happiness and brightness to the clouds, here is a beautiful red Amaryllis I captured. Isn’t this an incredible color!?!?!?

Bald Eagle, Cape Flattery, Washington, USA

Bald Eagle, Cape Flattery, Washington, USA

While driving on a back road near Cape Flattery, Washington, USA we saw several bald eagles perched high in the trees. There really wasn’t a spot to stop to take pictures, and large 18 wheeler log trucks were whizzing by! But somehow, my ingenious husband found a slim spot to pull off the road so I could setup a tripod to catch a close-up of this amazing bird. It was a lucky shot, because just seconds later, they all flew off to a different location. Isn’t this an amazing close-up?!?!?!
