I made it to the Smithsonian’s Air and Space Udvar-Hazy center for a few hours last year.  There was so much, that the little time I spent there was definitively not enough.  In fact, I was only able to make it through about 1/4 of all …Continue Reading Here…

Walking through the junk yard of Old Car City, you can find many interesting and strange things.  I found this old truck that had some cool coloring to it from all the rust and oxidation.  I was trying to set up for a shot from in the bed of the truck through to the cab.  That was probably not the best thing for me to have tried.  lets just say, I am just glad I …Continue Reading Here…

Today’s Photo:  Eighty Eight

Today brings another photo from the Old Car City USA.  I was trying to remember where in the junk yard I found this, but could not.  I don’t think it was in the Ford or Chevy only sections.  Once again my lack of car knowledge has bested me.  I think the Eighty Eight is a Ford.  If you know, leave a comment.

This was my first visit to the National Mall since I was in eight grade.  Lets just say it was a long time ago.  I am fortunate enough to have family that lives in the D.C. area and they were free to give me a quick tour.  Unfortunately, I was not able …Continue Reading Here…

I was in drafting for most of the four years I was in high school.  I had the dream of being an architect when I “grew up”.  What ever happened to that dream?  Huh!  So, from a young age, I have taken an interest in architecture and …Continue Reading Here…

The Eye

Today’s Photo:  The Eye

Many animals have great defensive mechanisms.  Turtles have shells, lizards have tails that fall off and butterflies pretend to be bigger than reality.  Some are really bright colored and some have the eyes of a hunter.  On top of the Ocean …Continue Reading Here…
