I put together a slide show of photographs I've taken over the past 12 months.


What a great year! I have done a lot, seen a lot, spent time with precious people I love.


So here it is. About three minutes long, featuring 60 photos... And a lot of good memories. Enjoy.


"Let stars stand for those things which are ideal and radiant in life; if we seek sincerely and strive hard enough, it is not impossible to reach them... And how often do we touch stars when we find them close by in the shining lives of great souls, in the sparkling universe of humanity around us!" ~ Esther Baldwin York


Happy New Year, 2012!

Mile Marker 384

Sunset at Autumn
Mile Marker 384 Asheville. The setting sun dwindles. The colors of autumn are barely hanging on to the trees. The air is cold. It feels like our last chance to ride. Is this our last ride until winter? 


And so this evening, the road opened up one more new surprise, with the wind of delight and amazement. We saw another black bear. A fat one this time. On Elk Mountain Scenic Road. Just right off on the side.
