The site transition was coming along really well until I had to take a trip to San Antonio for work last week. Luckily, I would say it’s about 80% complete at this point. I hope to have it out next week, since I’m off. I’m changing the color scheme, but trying to keep the basic…
Visited a new place for the first time today while geocaching – the Times Beach Bird Trail. The cache happens to be out on the breakwall, which made for a rocky, yet fun hike. You never know what you might see on these little adventures… The Buffalo Light The Buffalo Fire Boat (Edward M. Cotter)

Hooters in China….. I like them more and more all the time.
Have seen many of your photos, but I don’t really remember alot of them not to say that they aren’t good but there are a few here that have really caught my eye — the black and white tree lined pathway is amazing. I also really enjoyed the sunset skyline shot and night lites shot. Very good shots Derek from what looks like an amazing place to visit.
