Here is a photo looking north on S-2 towards the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park from Ocotillo.

In the Desert This Morning

I went out to the desert this morning and took this photo of my car at the Carrizo Badlands Overlook in the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park.

Another Cowles Mountain Photo

Here's another photo of people hiking up Cowles Mountain on New Years Day.

Merry Christmas

Mission Trails Park

This was taken on the Rim Trail in Mission Trails Park in San Diego, CA.

Julian Side Streets

This is a photo I took while on one of the side streets in Julian, CA. I also posted this on Gather.com, too, along with a Google map.

Santa Ysabel Preserve

I went early on a Sunday morning there for a hike. Here is a photo at the top of the ridge a few miles from Highway 79.

They're creating a staging area off of Highway 78 for this preserve, but it's not open yet. It looks like it will be nice.

Thundercloud at Coachella Valley Preserve

This is a photo I took a couple days ago at the Coachella Valley Preserve in Thousand Palms, California. There was no rain, but I think I heard some thunder in the distance.

Coachella Valley Overlook

This was taken at the Coachella Overlook. That's Coachella Valley down there.

Walking Path in Lake Forest, California

This is a photo of the bike and walking path all around Lake Forest and Mission Viejo.  They also have horse trails.   This one is along El Toro road.

Homes in West Avalon

Here is a photo of some homes on the western side of Avalon on Catalina Island nestled up against the hills. I probably should have rotated it. I might do so on my AC slideshow.

The glass wall at Saddleback Church

Here is a photo of the glass wall at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California. It has all kinds of sayings etched into it relating to the Bible and the church. I hope you can read a few of them when you click on the photo to enlarge it.

Avalon Harbor

Here is a close-up of some of the boats anchored in the bay.

Avalon Bay

Here is a photo I took when I was in Catalina of Avalon Bay from southwestern side.

Mission Trails Black and White Photo

I decided to convert this to black and white. This is a photo I took at Mission Trails Park a couple of days ago.

Off of Volcan Mountain

I went hiking on Volcan Mountain today and shot some pictures of the thunderstorm that was trying to form on the mountain near Julian, California. I underexposed this photo on purpose to get the clouds to become more visible.

New Slideshow on AC

I have a new photo slideshow on Associated Content. It's a combination of 35mm and digital photos.

Hiking Iron Mountain

My new haircut

Here's a self portrait of me after I got my haircut at Dearinger's salon this afternoon. I took this picture right after I got home. It probably won't look the same in a few hours.

Oh, as for the earthquake, everything is fine.

Ground Squirrel

I didn't go to the 4th of July fireworks as the one in my area was so obscenely crowded last year with a lot of very obnoxious and rude people. Also, they cut down on celebrations and there just weren't any other ones close by to where I live.

So, instead of fireworks, which is what I would have posted, I am posting this photo of a ground squirrel that I took at Chollas Lake.
