arroyo hondo

Halfway between Gaviota and Golita is Arroyo Hondo. There is not much there other than a turn-out along Highway 101. But what IS there is the old, inactive Highway 101 Bridge and an active railroad trestle, both spanning the Arroyo Hondo Creek.

california cruisin

I have many images from throughout California and decided to create one page just for those miscellaneous images. Some were shot on older 'Point-and-Shoot' cameras and appear a bit grainy. And a few may even be shot on 35mm film!

high sierra

What can you say about the High Sierra...it has inspired many people over the years...John Muir, Mark Twain and Ansel Adams to name a few. It is a place of stunning natural beauty punctuated with the tallest peak in the continental United States.

joshua tree

Joshua Tree National Park is another location that is stunningly beautiful. FDR designated Joshua Tree a National Park in 1936. Located in the Mojave Desert, the rock formations and abundant flora and fauna provide incredible photo ops and sweeping vistas.

paris

The City of Light - Paris...incomparable beauty...the people, the food, the architecture and the history. As Thomas Jefferson once said, "A walk about Paris will provide lessons in history, beauty, and in the point of life.” and that could not be truer.

california missions

The California Missions...many of us that have grown up in California have been to at least one. In school we built models out of sugar cubes and match sticks. They are as much a part of California history as the Gold Rush and Earthquakes.

rancho grande

Rancho Grande sits high in the Los Padres National Forest above Ojai. Privately owned, it is filled with animals of all shape and size, from friendly goats to Albert, a camel that thinks he is a dog. If you are ever in the Ojai area, it is definitely worth a visit.

scary dairy

Located in Camarillo, California, Scary Dairy was built to supply dairy products to the defunct Camarillo State Mental Hospital, now Cal State Channel Islands. In the years since, it has become a favorite destination for street artists, street poets and photographers looking to capture some amazing scenery.
