My son Mark might live in the most densely populated county in the state, but he’s wisely selected a semi-rural setting to hang his hat. He grabbed his camera the other day when he awakened to find this masked pair rummaging around the yard. They weren’t too concerned about him, so he snapped a few […]

Saturday was an “out with the old, in with the new day” in my home office. Buried under dozens of photo CDs was a collection of images from a November 2001 visit to Experience Music Project (EMP) in Seattle with son Mark.

I was too big to fit through the opening to this cave, but son Mark slid through, and was rewarded with several images including this beauty. We were on a hike in the forest near Chatterbox Falls in British Columbia, moving up a trail running parallel with this small waterfall. There can’t be too many […]
It was a week ago that son Mark and I had a great time scrambling around the base of breathtaking Chatterbox Falls in British Columbia. Mark’s sense of adventure was greater than mine, leading him to seek a “shower” under the falls. We made the trip with a group of men from church aboard the […]
Do not adjust your monitor. I had the privilege last weekend of spending four days on a sailboat with a group of men including my 22-year-old son, Mark. One of the highlights of the trip to British Columbia aboard the Makai was the opportunity to share my camera with Mark. This is one of many […]
Son Mark spent three days with YD Adventures on a hike around Mt. Adams. This active volcano, with a summit of 12,276 feet elevation, is the second highest peak in Washington State and the third highest peak in the Cascades Range. Mt. Adams was designated by Congress in 1964 as part of the National Wilderness […]
I’d drive hundreds of miles to see this smile! I did just that last weekend, heading with my wife to Portland to connect with son Mark. He is working for Youth Dynamics Adventures, a Christian youth ministry established in Anacortes and now speaking to young people’s hearts in Washington, Oregon and Idaho. There aren’t many […]
