Lighthouse on the Oregon coast overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Beautiful day with family.

Walking through the forest on a wonderful Autumn day. Young friends visiting, leaves turning over and the sweet smell of organic decay.

Playing music and sharing a talent with people. He was playing very nice country tunes with a good voice. Good for him and us.

Kite flying on the beach. What a joy.

We had the joy of having our dog, Kula, living with us for 16.5 years. Such a terrific friend. He past away 3.5 years ago. I know many viewers have felt the love and companionship a furry friend can bring into our lives. A toast to our furry friends!

Wilderness near Eugene where peace and quiet exist. Seeded thistles jutting up and looking regal. Beautiful day.

Mother Nature provides a wide and varied palette. To me nature is like the ocean or a pool where I can jump in, swim around and create from within. I can float, swim or splash to my hearts content.

A rainbow over a commercial parking lot. A simple and common enough city setting but not an everyday Rainbow event. There was a hidden natural beauty and composition that attracted me. Two atmospheres make one environmental utterance.

A Walk through the forest. Breathing in the clean air. Listening to birds sing and the wind moving through the trees. The sound of the forest floor crunching under your feet. There is nothing wrong and everything is just right and beautiful.

A joy in my life is running and another joy is painting amongst other endeavors. You have the wind in your face and the ground moving under your feet as you stride through the countryside. Friends, camaraderie, and a satisfying sense of accomplishment await those of like mindedness.
