During my visit to Pahrump, Nevada, last week, my friends toured me through the Red Rock Canyon area. To say it’s spectacularly beautiful is an understatement. I hope to return one day for some hiking as I’m sure the views from the top must be even more incredible. ~SueBee

A few unusual street signs I spotted while my friends were touring me through the Red Rock Canyon area in Nevada! ~SueBee

I’m submitting a second entry for this week’s Photo Challenge, Evanescent, with this photo I took at Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area in Nevada last week. Notice the climber making an attempt up the side of the rock. Well, not a second after taking the picture, the climber slipped off the rock and was […]

This week, the WordPress Photo Challenge asks us for a photo interpreting Evanescent (an adjective defined as soon passing out of sight, memory, or existence; quickly fading or disappearing). I chose a photo I took last week at Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge near Death Valley of a very speedy jackrabbit. He was gone in […]

In the ghost town of Rhyolite, on the edge of Death Valley, stands an unusual open air art museum featuring the ghostly Last Supper, created by Polish Beligian artist Albert Szukalski. ~SueBee

(11 Photos) After leaving the Opera House, we headed into Death Valley, stopping for the view at Zabriskie Point. Wow, is an understatement… see for yourself via this gallery of pics! ~SueBee

(14 photos) My friends, Aranka and her husband George, whom I visited in Pahrump, Nevada, earlier this week took me on a fabulous tour of the local area. On Tuesday, our destination was Death Valley. Driving through some pretty unforgiving land, there suddenly stood the Amargosa Opera House! I linked to their website for those […]

After returning home from Kat’s wedding in Julian (a couple hours south from home), I collapsed into bed, and then got up to hit the road again. My destination would be a town called Pahrump in the Nevada desert, about an hour northwest of Las Vegas, new home of a long-time friend. I headed out […]

(11 photos) I’m back from Kat and Cam’s wedding in Julian this past weekend, and also from a short visit to friends in the state of Nevada. Let me start by saying the wedding was perfect! It was everything the newlyweds dreamed of, and planned for the past 14 months. The pictures in this gallery were […]

(8 photos) These animals were all kind enough to pose in profile for me during my recent visit to San Diego Zoo Safari Park near Escondido, California. ~SueBee

This week’s WordPress Photo Challenge asks us to submit a picture of danger! I chose this picture I took on the Agua Caliente Indian Reservation in Palm Springs. While the desert is generally a very arid place, rain in nearby, higher elevations (the mountains directly above where I took the picture) can cause flash flooding that’s extremely […]

Today’s Foto Fix of a rhino strolling along was taken from the tram ride at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park using my zoom lens. Kat’s wedding countdown = 9 days!! ~SueBee

Today’s Foto Fix was taken while on the tram ride last week at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. Wedding update: Kat’s wedding is two weeks from today! We’ve been busy, busy, busy…. hence the infrequent blog posts here lately!! ~SueBee

It’s Monday morning, my least favorite time of the week. Today’s Foto Fix reflects a fairly common theme among my co-workers. Weekend’s over, we start work far too early, and could use another few hours sleep. I took this photo Saturday at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park near Escondido, California. The tigers are brothers from […]

For this week’s photo challenge, Earth, I chose four of my silly selfies taken with my iPhone. They feature me at various stops in California. I’m certain most of us agree, we’re each charged with protecting our Earth, regardless the ignorant people in political power. We must work all the harder to protect the beauty we’re […]

The day before Easter, my family and I went to William R Mason Regional Park in Irvine for a BBQ. What a perfect day to hide Easter eggs, play games, grill hamburgers, eat salads, chips, fruit, cupcakes… completely and utterly wonderful! ~SueBee

Wishing a Happy Easter to those who celebrate, a Happy Sunday to everyone else! The adorable, yummy cupcakes in this photo were made by Kat for our family picnic in the park yesterday. ~SueBee

(10  photos) Aside from the fabulous costumes on display at the Dressing Downton exibit at the Muzeo Museum in Anaheim, California, I was wildly entertained by printed cards featuring the Dowager Countess quotes. Brilliantly played by Dame Maggie Smith, the Dowager was a highlight of the Downton Abbey TV show. I gathered all my photos […]

Today’s Foto Fix was taken off the Seal Beach pier a few months ago, using my iPhone. I continue to be in awe of the talent who created this! Happy Friday everyone! ~SueBee

(13 photos) Continuing my post from yesterday with more photos from the Downton Abbey exhibit at Muzeo Museum in Anaheim. ~SueBee
