Greetings from Virgin Islands National Park
In this national park, humans and nature interact respectfully. While wilderness was the foundation of American culture, it has since taken on many new connotations. Wilderness is supposed to be a place where no person remains, yet people constantly search for answers in the wilderness. People believe wilderness provides them…

Greetings from Shenandoah National Park
I often go fly fishing at Penn's Creek with my buddies. Here is a picture from the spring of 2016 with a brown trout I caught that day. Penn's Creek has some solid trout, if you're in to fly fishing go check it out.

Greetings from Grand Teton National Park
This is a picture of me at the top of Grand Teton mountain! This took a total of two days (and a lot of effort) to get to the peak which is where this picture is taken. Before this climb, I never really appreciated the national parks in our country…

Everything about the park amazed me, from the breathtaking views of the glaciers and the awe-inspiring mountains to the vast and open realm of unadulterated nature to marvel and delight at. Playing around…

Greetings from Cape Cod National Seashore
It was our first visit to Cape Cod off season. After hoofing along the sands for an hour or so, I happened to look back at our receding tracks; amazingly, they were as natural as those of the shore birds in that they appeared marvelously wobbly. Beyond Nauset Light blinking…
