A Sunday morning, downtown Oakland as the sun graces the sky. The bart station at 12th street/Oakland very much shows the homeless situation that still remains in the city.
The California theatre was built in 1927 and closed its doors in 1973. In 2004 after being restored, it opened once again for Opera San Jose.
Hello sunshine!
Lake Tahoe is the largest alpine lake in North America and 2nd deepest behind Crater Lake in Oregon. Pretty impressive for this beautiful lake!
Dramatic as ever, the scene on the Yosemite Valley floor. Looking up at the rock face of Half Dome amazes me every time. I can see why Ansel Adams had a field day here! The sharp contrast everywhere you look, the wildlife that just so naturally stays close to your every move and the picturesque sky that always seems to give the right backdrop.
I recently decided to go back and do some photo editing from pictures taken over the years. The wonderful thing about a photo is that it brings you back to where you were in a way. The aroma in the air, the views, the people you pass along the way.
Sleep is one of those things that are so precious in life. A newborn doesn’t always allow you the luxury though. A sleeping mother with her trusty dog at her side, while her baby naps. These times come few and far in the first couple of months.
A weekend away is sometimes exactly what the doctor ordered. After having our newborn, we decided to do a quick weekend getaway to the beautiful Carmel, CA.
A child can transform so much of your life. The event of bringing a little baby into life is truly magical. The first breath, the moment those little eyes open and the grasp of that hand. It all plays an important part into your transformation as a human being.

About Me

I've lived several places in the United States. Born in Michigan, lived several years of my life in Florida and currently in California. I was enticed with travel from an early age. I've traveled around most states in the US and have ventured across Europe. As my love of travel continues, my passion grows deeper with learning about new cultures and what makes them unique. Travel with me as I gather my thoughts on travel and experience the world through my lens.
