My girlfriend and I got back from Japan a few weeks ago, and we've finally gotten the pictures posted. If you're interested, let me know and I'll send you a link to the whole collection.

For now though, here are some samples of some of the good ideas, bad ideas, and funny signs we saw.

Starting with the funny signs...

Just a quick note today to share that my girlfriend and I have finished preparing and posting all of our pictures from the winter holiday. We took a journey to Santa Barbara, L.A., San Diego, Phoenix, Sedona and the Grand Canyon.

It was a great trip, and if anybody wants to see the pics, just drop me a line and I'll send you the link.

Natalie and I finally posted our pictures from Peru. We both had cameras, so we ended the trip with about 1,500 pictures. After two weeks of adjusting, cropping, and deleting pictures, we've wittled it down to only 757 photos.

I know, I know, that's one heck of a lot of photos, but we decided there were just too many that couldn't be deleted.

We've posted the photos on Picassa, so if you're interested in seeing them, drop me a line, and we can get you permission to the album.

Enjoy.

Just a quick note today to announce that pictures from last weekend are posted in the photo area for those of you that have logins.

It was a fantastic weekend. Some friends and I decided to go to Yosemite to go hiking, show shoeing and camping. All in all, Yosemite remains one of the most beautiful places on earth. The pictures are impressive, but they still can't tell the whole story. Enjoy.

The pictures from the Holidays in Tampa are posted in the photo area. If you cannot see them, it's probably because you need to login.

The holidays were fun. We had a relaxing time in Tampa hanging out with family, and checking out the Plant Museum and Ybor City (where most of the world's cigars once came from).

The pictures from Thanksgiving are posted in the photo area. If you can't find them, it's probably because you need to login.

Thanksgiving was a blast. A friend and I made a circle north to Crater Lake, then to the Oregon coast at Gold Beach, south to Petrolia and then home again. Great pictures and good clean fun.
