100 post !

100 , what a number , when I started this blog , never did it occur to me that there would be so many. hell most of my family and friends didn't realize I knew that many words.it started as a kind of log of my trips to the Adirondacks , branching out into a collection of trips to just about everywhere and anywhere. there have been plenty of laughs and a few tears along the way.

with post like " Just another Black Sheep ". where my friends at work tagged me with the moniker " The undesirable " to the more recent post , " My Lost Art , And What Could of Been ", removed at the request of just about everyone. it was a lot of laughs , made memorable by all the kidding and kind words expressed over the period of time this blog covered.

now it's time to take a break and work on my October 2014 project thingy I have spent so much time talking about. as Kabir once said : The best way to make your dreams come true is to wake up. and lord knows I have been sleeping far to long. in case I don't make my way back , I'd like to leave 3 links to post that are dear to my heart.

last one out , turn out the lights! I love ya all !

Dream like walk on the beach

I dream of sitting out where the sea meets the sky.

Focus for Unfocus

one of the things I really love to do is take a 200mm lens , threw it out of focus and search for something that makes sense to me.you just never know what you are going to find.

Chasing the Waves

It has been a little bit since I posted anything and I won't get back out on the road till Monday or Tuesday . I can't help myself, I have to upload something.

Happy New Year's to each and all !

Sunset in the Woods

I took this photo walking in the woods at , " Three Sisters Lighthouse " in Cape Cod. They are some of the prettiest and most interesting woods I have ever seen.

Feeling refreshed

back home , sitting here with a nice hot cup of tea , I'm feeling refreshed after a week of strolling the beaches and broadwalk, spending time with family , old friends and a few new ones . I can't help but look back and realize that even with the few potholes along my wacky trail , it has been a very good year for me. there is still lots of time left in this year 2011 but looking forward to the next one with high hopes and dreams.

below are a few black and white photos from the trip with color photos coming in a couple of days. hoping everyone enjoys them as much as I did taking them.

on a lighter note , it appears my Japenese is worst then my English , with everyone asking me to translate a post from earlier. while my words have changed a little since then , I will write it out the way it is posted.

O beautiful girl
feelings of sorrow , so sad
burning eyes so wet

so hard to see friends so near
to accept their hearts so clear

( I know , it sucks ! Cut me some slack. )

to my heart and soul

Holiday Season

talking with one of my brother's today and a few other friends , arranging dinner plans for Atlantic City next weekend. it occured to us that this will probably be the last time we see each other this year. sitting here digesting that I was thinking about family and friends that I won't see at all for the holidays.

 I don't want anyone one to think I could have forgotten them ( yea right , like anyone could forget these wackadoos ! ) . so here is a christmas wish for each and everyone of you.

                                             

love ya all !

Jersey Shore

after more then a year of planning , unplanning , frustration and disappointment i'm finally going to make it to the Jersey shore next week , yippee !!! I can't wait to just walk the beaches , photograph and plan my year ahead . the ocean is the place that enables me to release and rejuvenate. another good thing about the trip is that I can never travel to Jersey without running into old friends , you just never know who it will be this time. first stop !   59st.  pier , Ocean City and all points south.
