My Photography Index
Photography is more enjoyable if it is shared. I say this all the time. What good is a photo if it sits on a computer and no one ever sees is? It brings me great joy when others enjoy my photographs. These photos are copyrighted by me. They are not for downloading and your use. However, I welcome you to share links to my pages on social networking.
VIDEOS

ADVENTURES AWAIT US MAP
Enjoy the interactive map to explore where adventures await us. Click on the markers on the map to find a link back to the website page that shares more about that location. (The links do not work as well on a mobile phone, but are readable.) You can also visit the same map on Google where it is easier to navigate. The yellow background counties are the ones we need to visit yet.
