Ladies and gentlemen,

In one of my last posts I incorrectly attributed the making of the video to Facebook. It actually was made by Apple on my iPad for me. What a great implementation that they have made in their Photos app. They can be edited to remove irrelevant pictures and then saved so that you can email or post them to various sites.

Below find one that I just recently discovered in my photos from our time up in northern Arizona. These images were taken during our drive around the red rock loop near Sedona, Arizona. I hope you enjoy it.

When I signed into Facebook this morning they presented me with this video of our recent travels. We hope you enjoy it, Larry

Well I want to apologize for being so long between posts. We have been doing quite a bit of traveling but unfortunately not a lot of picture taking.

Below are two photographs from a scenic view point above Jerome, Arizona. Jerome was established in 1876 and is at about 5000 feet elevation. There was no opportunity to pull off to take any photos as the Highway goes through the center of town, very narrow with buildings up against the cliff on one side and overlooking a canyon on the other side. I believe from the information we saw that Jerome was originally established as a gold mining town.

We are currently in El Paso, Texas or my wife is visiting her sister and nephew. Nice and warm here today, about 72°.

We have been keeping busy getting through Christmas with everyone. Had a very enjoyable time and delicious meals.

Hoping in the next week or two to be able to go up to Bosque del Apache NWR near Socorro, New Mexico. There we would hope to find many sandhill crane’s and Snowgeese. In the past January has been an excellent month to be there, although a little on the cold side.

We hope everyone had a great Christmas and will have a happy and prosperous new year.

We are now in El Paso, Texas. I imagine this will be our location until after the holidays. I just wanted to post a quick update.

Hello everyone, we are back home after a very short trip down to Arkansas. Visited with Tim and Pam Ernst at their new gallery. Had a great time and then early the next morning (4 AM) we headed down to Boxley valley to find the elk in the fog. We were fortunate to find a very nice 6 x 6 bull elk in the far east end of the valley just before we were ready to leave. It was still quite early so there wasn’t a lot of light but we were able to get what we think is a pretty decent image.

We will truly enjoy our visits to the Buffalo national river area. Almost always something interesting to see near Ponca, AR.

We are back home for a while and are able to access some of the videos on our main computer. The one below was from our last visit to view the Canadian side view of the Niagara and Horseshoe falls. We were fortunate to find a parking location not far from the viewing area. The crowds were not as overwhelming as they were during our first attempt which was on a Canadian holiday.

Here is a link to the video, or maybe the video:

As we sort through the rest of our files we will post any which we think might be of interest.

Have a great weekend,
Larry

We are now on our way home, somewhere in the middle of Ohio. It was a very long day today. Got up really early to be at Roadtrek when they open to get our third seat fixed.

After that we went and explored the beautiful city of Niagara on the lake. Very unique with lots of beautiful flower arrangements all over the place. Mini boutique shops of all kinds and a unique Starbucks in a very old building. Unfortunately it was too hard to do any picture taking. We hope to retire and spend a few days there sometime in the future, preferably in the fall.

As it was so close to Niagara Falls we decided to drive over and try to get some photos of the falls in the day time. Bright sunshine in the middle of the day resulted in very disappointing. Please see them below.

This one is of Niagara Falls.

The one below is of Horseshoe Falls.

The one below shows you the extent of viewers on the American side. There were just as many or more on the Canadian side today.

We had a wonderful trip even though it was shorter than most we venture out on. Unfortunately we were so busy doing other things we did not get many images.

Sorry we have not posted more in the recent few weeks. Spent a little time at home and now we are in Canada. Currently in Niagara by the falls. Very nicely kept quaint little old city with lots of shopping.

Fortunately they had a Starbucks which was in the oldest building that I’ve ever seen a Starbucks located it. And they were very busy.

Below is about the only photo I have taken in the last several weeks. Hopefully we’ll get a few more when we start home. The one below is of Niagara Falls and was taken well before Dawn.

Unless I find some more images I think these are the ones I had not gotten to earlier. I hope you enjoy viewing some of the vistas we enjoyed during our recent visit to Glacier National Park. If it were not so far from home it could easily become our favorite National Park.

After a few previous attempts we were finally able to travel all of the “Going to the Sun” road in the park. It was an unbelievable experience!

Majestic mountains!

More mountains and one of the several waterfalls in the park.

This mountain, shrouded by cloud is named Heavens Peak.

The white flowers are bear grass. They were growing everywhere.

Just another of the magnificent vistas of mountains and valleys one can enjoy on the “Going to the Sun” road in Glacier NP.

As we neared Logans Pass, the top of the “Going to the Sun” road folks that got up later than we did were catching up to and passing us. 🙂

This photo is of the Visitor Center at Logans Pass.

After a record snowfall last winter there was still lots of snow.

I believe this distant and very tall waterfall is named “Bird Women Waterfall”. What a beautiful setting!

Glacier National Park is wonderful. I just wish it was not so far away. It would be wonderful to visit in the early fall when the foliage is changing.
