Merry Christmas 2016!
Beignets for Santa! It has been a completely crazy and busy end of the year at work and I have had little time for blogging or photography. For my vacation this month I had planned a simple staycation with my family, but as with most things, the best laid plans … Jen and I have […]
Rock of Cashel Panorama
Panorama of Rock of Cashel, Tipperary, Ireland Last month I had the luck (of the Irish?) to head over to Dublin for a business trip, and took a few extra days for a short holiday with my wife while there. We grabbed a tour bus for a day trip to a number of sites, including the […]

Travel Bags and Baggage
Carrying yet more baggage … So – for the record – I hate traveling as much as I have to with my new role, and I’ve got a ton of travel coming up this year yet. My older checked baggage is getting long in the tooth and a bit ratty – needs replacement before the wheels fall […]
Jester and King Cake
Court Jester at New Orleans Riverwalk Another photo, this one of a Jester, from our trip to New Orleans French Quarter last weekend. American Airlines lost our checked luggage for two days, and they were kind enough to pay for Jen to go on a small shopping trip to pick up a few “necessary and reasonable” items […]
St. Roch – Campo Santo
St. Roch New Orleans – Sundial Last weekend, Jen & I got some much-needed downtime and spent the weekend in New Orleans. As St. Louis cemeteries now require tour guides and you cannot explore as easily due to vandalism that has taken place, we ventured on up in St. Roch’s Campo Santo cemetery a bit north […]
Happy Easter and La Sagrada Familia
La Sagrada Familia – Happy Easter Happy Easter Weekend everyone. Here is a photo of La Sagrada Familia (the Church of the Holy Family) taken on my last trip to Barcelona. I’ve been going through a bunch of photos taken for a project of prints I am working on and this caught my eye and begged […]
Barcelona: Park Güell
Gaudi’s Park Güell – Barcelona While in Barcelona, we tried to visit a couple different Gaudi landmarks, and were hoping to walk around Park Güell and take some photos. Unfortunately, we made a critical mistake – not buying tickets in advance. We were able to walk around the outside of the park, and a small open area, […]
