Near Death in Chattanooga
This is a really nice picture of my wife as she sits on a stone wall with Chatanooga in the background. But this is also a picture of when I thought she had only seconds to live. As with every pic, there is a story…
Antietam National Battlefield
There is a story behind the pictures I take. This one filled me with dread and despair. It was a rather dull and dreary day in March when we stopped at the Antietam National Battlefield, one of the first stops of our March Break trip…

We have been busy travelling. We just came back from a week-long visit to Virginia Beach. Ten days before that, we were in Cleveland for a three-day weekend. Then, just days before Cleveland, there was Ottawa. And we are about to travel again. Fort Wayne,…
