Day 023 -It’s been a year-long plan, but I finally made it to Zion National Park. I’ve been wanting to go for years, and it did not disappoint. After a very difficult hike up and down to Angel’s Landing, I grabbed this in a meadow just before getting back to the trailhead. What a beautiful […]
Day 022 -Red Rock Canyon just outside of Vegas is a lot more beautiful than the strip. I spent the night here and woke up early for a wonderful hike. If you come to Vegas take the half hour drive and check it out, you will not be disappointed. (October 7, 2016)
Day 295 -We’ve had several great musicians come through the base, but tonight was the first one I’ve known well. Eric Hutchinson has been a favorite for the last couple of years. He writes great music and he’s also very funny. Check him out if you get a chance. -JUNE 27
Day 286 -Country singer Casey James came to Djibouti to play for us troops. It’s a tough crowd to get into the show when it’s 99˚out 9:00 but he rocked the house. -JUNE 18
Day 231 -Patrick McAloon of the Pat Mcgee band plays one of my favorite instruments the mandolin. Always great when we get some live music. -APRIL 23
Day 229 -After yesterday’s trip to the salt lake, I thought a picture of salt would be appropriate. I tried to get creative with the macro, tupperware, remote flash, and a black sock. However it was the processing that made the photo unique. -APRIL 22
Day 189 -Had a great treat is seeing Darius Rucker here on base for a concert. It has been a while, about 18 years by my count since I last saw him. This one goes out to Jon and JJ. And yes he sang some Hottie songs. Thanks for a great show and great photo […]
Day 137 -The band Anberlin was at that base tonight. They’re pretty good and as you can see, really got into it. Lots of energy, good tunes, and of course skinny jeans. It’s always nice to hear live music. And Happy Birthday Mom -JANUARY 20
