Feelings are much like waves , we can't stop them from coming but we can choose which one to surf.  Jonatan Mårtensson  

  There is nothing like a good shower to start the morning off right There is nothing like being alive in the sun and moon light

Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each new year find you a better person.  Benjamin Franklin

Our true reality is in our identity and unity with all life. Joseph Campbell

Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountain is going home; that wildness is necessity; that mountain parks and reservations are useful not only as fountains of timber and irrigating rivers, but as fountains of life.   John Muir

The feeling of being hurried is not usually the result of living a full life and having no time. It is on the contrary born of a vague fear that we are wasting our life. When we do not do the one thing we ought to do, we have no time for anything else- we are the busiest people in the world.                        Eric Hoffer  Thanks to all for your vote, I have been awarded 3rd place in the Canon Photography in the Parks Contest. Now it time to get busy again...      Mike

Hello everyone, My image "Octopus House" has been selected as one of the ten finalist in the Canon's "Photography in the Park" Contest. Their judges have gotten it to this point and now its up to the public to pick the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and Grand Prize winners. I am so excited and would greatly appreciate if you would give Canon your info and vote for my image. You can only vote once per email address, but you also have a chance to win a Canon camera just for voting. Here's how, First you have to select a teen photo, then mine's in the adult group, then select between the two and then enter all your info.  Sorry for the hoops, seems they only want serious voters.
