A Stormy Scene
This image (above) was taken on October 11, 2003 while I was headed back to Flagstaff, AZ after delivering to the Grand Canyon and Cameron, AZ. The skies were tumultuous and dark except for the area directly above the peaks. The sun highlights the many colors of the changing trees due to autumn. The picture is one of my favorites because of the turmoil in the weather.
Sixty Mile An Hour Gusts
Today, on the way to and from the Grand Canyon I experienced up-to 60 mile an hour gusts of wind while driving the medium-large truck (see below). I was gripping the steering wheel in an attempt to keep the truck from veering into the lane going the opposite direction and to keep the truck from flipping over...it was that bad. It was definitely the worst winds I've ever experienced.
Trees Down All Over The Place
There were countless trees, mostly Aspen, down along the way to the Grand Canyon. There were some Ponderosa Pines down, but no where near as many as Aspen. It was so bad, I decided to scoot my chair all the way back in the unlikely event that a tree went down in front of me while I was driving. If you notice in the image above, there is little to protect the driver if there should be some sort of accident focusing on the front.
My Top Five T.V. Stations
After some thought, I've decided that my favorite television (cable) stations are (not in any particular order):
* The Biography Channel
* The Discovery Channel
* The Learning Channel
* Headline News
* TBS
...these are the stations I watch more often than not. Other channels I watch, but not as much as the others include:
* MTV 2
* The Comedy Channel
* TNT
* A&E
* AMC
* The Science Channel

The Brother/Sister Shot
The image above reminds me of an era gone by that I can't relate to, but I have to admit, this shot sure looks authentic, based on all the movies I've seen that look similar (which is no real point of reference).
Innocent?
Kim and Brian look so innocent in this shot, as if they were the perfect daughter and son. They are just as perfect as any other son and daughter, so you know they have a mischievous side as well, especially Brian. In this photograph from Christmas 2001, Kim is 18 and Brian is 15 & 1/2.
