Best Seats In the House At Otterbein Baseball
Relatively ordinary day with a late afternoon bike ride through and near Uptown with a side trip through the Otterbein campus where students, professors, and family gathered to watch the season opener for the baseball team. Thought the best way together it all in was...

The Difficult Moments Now Decorating Walls
Earlier today one of my Facebook friends pointed me towards a New York Times story with a remarkable photo of a lone person walking through dust and debris in a canyon of buildings destroyed by the war in Syria. I always enjoy our online conversations because each of...
An afternoon in the sun in the park
It was a great Sunday afternoon with temperatures moving to the 70s, a bike in good condition, legs that were bared after a winter in jeans, and a smaller than normal complement of cameras. Great day for a bike ride. I was surprised how few people were out in the...
First day at the sailboat races
One of the surest signs of spring is opening day for the Hoover Sailing Club's Spring Regatta. That day was today. Despite slow winds, cool temperatures, and the sun peaking in and out of frosty clouds, sailors in dry suits ran through the tri-corner course with ease...
Sailor with his sailboat on Hoover Reservoir
When this sailor began the task of preparing his sailboat for its first water journey of the year the sun was bright in the cool sky and there was just enough wind to justify a late afternoon sail around the lower waters of Hoover Reservoir. Working alone, this...
The perfect obituary for a photographer
My wife sings in the funeral choir of our church where all too often she learns about other people’s lives and family too late to enjoy the living. The eulogies are always gracious with friends and family speaking about the transitional moments in relationships, how...
Life at the crossroads in Uptown Westerville

Taking an afternoon trip across Hoover Reservoir wasn't a fool's chore for this pair of young kayakers who braved chill winds and choppy waters for their first outdoor adventure of the spring. Despite temperatures barely above freezing and a brisk wind from the west,...

The farm house on the hill
There's a lot of farm country near my daughter's home north of Johnstown. About two miles away on the crest of a small ridge sits an old farm house recently refurbished from a condition that showed years of abandonment and disrepair. It now has new siding, roof, a...

Baseball, Chevrolets and Fords, and beer
I was offered a lot of liquid refreshment while on my bike ride, with cameras, today. Fortunately several were for beer including this spot of Americana near my house. Suburban house. Flag pole with a flag. Chevrolet in the driveway. Ford in the garage. Beer in the...
Man with feather in his cap portrait
I don't visit Hoover Dam often during the winter. It's too stark and void of people. As the weather begins to change in early spring there is a hint of color along the eastern shoreline as flower buds and leaves appear in the treeline. The grey monotone of winter...
