I’m so excited 2 of my photographs are featured in the "Voyages" edition of Wild Greens magazine! So many of my photographs reflect a voyage in a literal and/or artistic sense -- I really could have provided countless photos for this edition!

Latest Notes

 Hockey has always been a favorite sport of mine — both to play and watch since I was a young kid. I’d never been to any sports Hall of Fame and I felt like this was the right place to start. |
 From ice skating through the city on the "world’s largest skating rink" to Beaver Tails to the amazing architecture of Canada's capitol, Ottawa offers plenty of opportunities for visitors. Oh, and a brewery in an amazing old grist mill! |
The home of the original buffalo wing? No questions asked; visiting the Anchor Bar in Buffalo made it on my bucket list immediately. The more difficult challenge — when would I ever be (372 miles away from home) in Buffalo?
While planning a road trip to Toronto, it became clear that passing through Buffalo was inevitable. Bingo. My chance had finally arrived. There was no chance I was going to blow this opportunity. It’s happening.

Clicking around Google Maps late one night, I stumbled upon the Genesee Brew House -- 5 hours and 20 minutes -or- 333 miles away from me. I knew immediately that I had to go.
But when? In 2025, I found myself in upstate New York, just an hour away, and made the detour. And, wow, am I glad I did. |
 I'm SO excited to report one of my photos appears on this year’s official DOO-WW magnet! |
