04/14/2012 Back in September of 2011 I
realized a long time goal, hike Mt. Whitney. At 14,501 feet it
is the tallest peak in the lower 48 and a spectacular journey.
Here is your chance to see it
through the lens of my camera.
04/14/2012 Overdue but hopefully worth the wait. The last
practice hike before Mt. Whitney was Mt. Dana in Yosemite. An
intense six mile round trip that tops out at over 13,000 feet.
The views from the top are just rewards for a difficult trek.

11/03/2011 Becky and took a long weekend at
Yosemite to celebrate our 25th anniversary. I've added a page
with some pictures from the trip.
08/10/2011 Where does the time go? I've been
watching the net for a Fly Press for
a long time and recently one showed up on Craig's List in
Gilroy. Learn what one is and what it takes to move, clean,
repaint, and re-assemble one. If you are impatient and just
want to see it doing something, click
here to see a video of
pressing studs from a wheel hub, or
here to see a video of it
crushing a steel paint can.
04/27/2011 Another long gap, I've been busy.
Turns out I haven't mentioned much about blacksmithing so I've
added a page about my new forge.
11/06/2010 Ok, so they are long overdue,
here are some pictures from the Reno
Air Races for 2010. In my defense, I've been a bit busy and it
takes a while to sort through over 1700 pictures. This year I
saw George Giboney survive what some would call a rough landing.
After calling a "Mayday" he was attempting to land in the very
strong and gusty crosswind. The
pictures tell the story. I hope to never take pictures like
that again.
