A small out of the way dinner in Omaha Nebraska.....yes Nebraska.

Hollywood Candy...selling Antiques and Mercantile.... In the Old Market.

Looks like a place we ate at when we were younger in New York State, down the hill from the Becker Farm. Seems we ate there only when we didn't go to Aunt Eva's.

Quite a feat to beat the youngster on a Monday....it went to 97.6 at 500px as well today. Hand held at a quarter of a second....tripods cost you 50 dollars to set up, oh but the possibilities!

Omaha Marina sits at the bottom of the ramp, you can park the boat and wander up to the regional headquarters of the National Park Service or stroll across the bridge to nowhere.

This was the old lead smelter site....just behind is the bridge to Iowa from downtown Omaha

The good life....Nebraska, 16 degrees here last night....the Robins are out in full force this morning and tonight will be our last night below freezing as the temps slowly rise and Spring forces the Crocus out of the freezing earth.

Devoid of any natural color our world starts to thaw and color will slowly return to Omaha. Soon the tractors will be in the fields planting the seasons crops.

Angry Lake

So i've been archiving it the last few weeks trying to take care of all that stuff you put off till the day you must do it....my image "Stockade Lake North" I did four days ago reached the top twenty of all time for me.....so taking a look back and reprocessing with the new processes available and your better processing skills is sure worth the time, plus I'm writing more as well for the book.

Loon Lake Wisconsin at the end of the Fall foliage change. Although this was great color and scenery it was far short of what we saw throughout the State. Each year we take a tour of the State and travel the best sites we have found over the past ten years. We are gone up to two weeks on this trip with camping mostly in the Wisconsin wilderness though most areas are quite accessible as a day trip then to town at night.....we just love sitting next to the fire and scrolling through the Images we spent the day collecting.

Camping in the rain....not so much fun....somehow it makes life much better when your home in your comfy bed.

Spring foliage change is just around the corner here and north.....Nisha and Paul must have flowers by now.
