Surfers in the Backyard (365:34)

What makes for a bad snorkeling day, makes for a great day to surf. Our attempts to snorkel were thwarted twice today by big surf. But there were dozens of surfers and people on boogie boards in any cove that had decent waves. Our little cove was not very crowded …

Move to Ali’i Hale (365:33)

Today we moved into the rental house down on Ali’i Drive and my two sisters arrived. The whole Russell clan is together for the first time since Rome in the Spring of 2005. But earlier in the day, before the sisters arrived, my parents and I took all of our …

A Hike and a Lava Tube (365:32)

Today’s Hawaiian adventure started with a hike higher up on the volcano that my brother lives on, Hualalai. We drove up to around 2800 feet and hiked in to Honuaula Forest Reserve. The climate around 3000 feet is incredibly different than what I’d been seeing further down the volcano. It …

Turtles, Lava, and a Gecko (365:31)

Today we went to Kukio beach on the Kona Coast. I had my bathing suit, but truth be told, I didn’t use it. I was having far too much fun walking around with my camera. In one little cove I saw 7 or 8 honu (sea turtles). (Yep, trying to …

365: Day 30 – Firsts from Kona

Today I arrived in Kailua-Kona on the big island of Hawai’i. This is my first visit to any of the Hawaiian Islands, so I have very much been looking forward to this. I couldn’t pick just one from this afternoon’s stroll around my brother’s place for the photo of the …

Hiking Up Thumb Butte

Roadrunner Offering

Here is another photo from our recent travels to Prescott, AZ. We were visited by a pair of roadrunners on our first two mornings, but then we did not see them again until the very last day when I captured this moment. Prior to this trip I had never before …

Dragonfly Perch in the Arizona High Desert

My wife and I recently returned from a trip to Prescott, AZ. We spent over a week there and enjoyed various excursions — climbed a mountain and a butte, drove old Route 66, visited a “town” called Nothing, talked to some sculptors, and watched square dancing under the stars and …

From the Archives – Umbrian Light

It’s hard to believe it took me this long to post a photo from one of my trips to Italy. I had to dig back through the old point and shoot days to find this image. Back in 2005, I spent three months living in Rome and traveling around Italy. …
