Happy New Year, friends! I just published my annual video highlighting my favorite photos along with commentary. It's on YouTube and the link is below. 2017's video clocked in at just under an hour this year; don't feel like you have to watch it all at once. Here's to another year on the road! https://youtu.be/WcxQeuUPETI

The Value of Expression
My friend Bruce shared an image on Instagram recently that sent me deep in thought. On the campus of the University of Texas in Austin, a stairwell pillar was covered with the following message: However, when you shift to look at the OTHER side of the column, the message changes: This settled deep in my … Continue reading The Value of Expression
Crafts & Crossings
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I had one of the best in recent memory, as my Mom and brother came over to our house for the holiday. Samantha and Mom cooked together, Tyler and I played video games, and we all enjoyed a fabulous meal. The family even made it to a movie … Continue reading Crafts & Crossings

It's not an exhaustive list, but hopefully it inspires people to get out and experience the road for yourself. The … Continue reading Oklahoma Route 66 in Tulsa People Magazine
No Place like Dome
Back in 2011, I had my very first public exhibit of my photography. I set up a single table at the Blue Dome Arts Festival and sat under my brand-new tent, eager to share the stories behind the photos I'd selected.

Restless Wandering
I've been on vacation for nearly two weeks. It's been a busy time: Thanksgiving, Indie Emporium, family stuff, house work. I hadn't been able to break free for a day and explore (as I am wont to do) until today. I woke early, grabbed a cup of coffee, and left Tulsa without much of a … Continue reading Restless Wandering
My Route 66 Awakening
I started a new role at my workplace last week. It was the first time in a long time that I'd moved to a different office and worked with a completely new group of people; as such, they didn't know anything about me. I talked to my new coworkers about my professional history and personal life, … Continue reading My Route 66 Awakening
