Eastview during sunset (September 2025)

…the evening sky looked like this. In a couple more weeks, a sunrise will look something like this. Right now, we are somewhere in between.

Green Springs Mountain Loop Trail (September 14, 2025)

After almost 25 years in the Rogue Valley, it’s now difficult to discover new things. However, a couple of days ago we set out for a walk we had never done before.

Australian Pink Floyd @ Britt earlier this month

Despite being limited by the size of the back of Britt’s stage, The Australian Pink Floyd Show featured maybe the best light show Britt has experienced. There were some rather unusual elements that I have never seen utilized before.

The above photo is from their rendition of “Goodbye Cruel World” which occurred just after “Another Brick in the Wall, Part 3” during which a red wall formed at the end via smoke and lighting.

All in all you were all just bricks in the wall.

Trinity Mountains, California (August 9, 2025)

This picturesque peak is unnamed as it’s merely a ridge up to Mt. Eddy which is over 1,000 feet higher.
