Welcome to Breakfast in America

I’m a Brit who unexpectedly emigrated to the USA in 2008, and this is my photo journal.

It’s an eclectic mix of things; there’s no guiding theme or topic. It is whatever catches my attention, what I’ve been thinking, doing, or piques my interest. Currently that’s mainly backpacking and clearing some of the backlog on my ‘honey-do’ list.

Memories

A dozen pictures, picked at random from my favorite memories. You can see my portfolio here.

Twin Trunks

Twin Trunks – I loved the way the light caught these two trees on either side of the creek bed.

Little Mermaid After Show Pictures

The Little Mermaid – Springfield Little Theater

Just before the beginning of term, with no warning or preparation, Lanie decided to audition for The Little Mermaid at Springfield Little Theater. Against some pretty stiff competition she was selected and to her credit has stuck with it with good humor through a rigorous rehearsal and show schedule. 14 pictures

    Day Seventeen

    When I’m out backpacking, I can rely on the Gaia GPS App to provide me with accurate information on where I take my pictures. When driving Google Maps (which, incidentally, only works on a cell phone now), you can only find out where you have been if Google thinks it is ‘Interesting’ enough — or, more likely, there could be some profit.

    I spent quite a while trying to determine where I took this and the following two pictures. But no luck. It was somewhere on the Cherohala Skyway.

    A couple of rushed pictures as the sun went down on the distant mountains. I processed the two pictures differently and couldn’t pick between them, so you get to see both.
