Colorado Jeep trail

It's been many years since I lived in southwestern Colorado. I recently stumbled on a photograph that reminded me of the happy hours I used to spend crawling over the rocky Jeep trails in the San Juan Mountains north of Durango. This painting is roughly based on that found image. The high country can give travelers an unparalleled view of steep valleys, and a topless Jeep lets you enjoy the views to the fullest. Long live fresh mountain air!

You never know who you'll run into when you're out on the road.

Miner's Falls, Munising, Michigan

Whirlwind trip to one part of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, a land surrounded by freshwaters seas and filled with rocks and forests. Hundreds of waterfalls packed into a relatively small region.

This is Miner's Falls near Munising, Michigan. There are more than a dozen waterfalls within a dozen miles. This one is in Pictures Rocks National Lakeshore. It's one of the taller falls in the area.
