Is there a better way to go?

I can hope this is the way I leave this Earth...several years from now.

Photo taken in a trinket shop, Bourbon St, New Orleans.

Effigy Mounds

Effigy Mounds National Monument is located near Harper's Ferry IA. The park is located on the Mississippi River. Views of the great river and its valley are abundant. The trails are well marked and gives its trekkers a good workout while winding them up and down the bluffs of the mighty Mississippi.

Sturgeon Bay Canal

These photos were taken in late October while on a yacht cruising from Sturgeon Bay into Lake Michigan via the Sturgeon Bay Canal. I was given the opportunity to drive the yacht through the canal. It was easy and therefore feel I'm ready to sail the high seas and oceans of the world.

Para-sailing

If you've never para sailed, I'd recommend it.

This photo of Liz and I was taken by my Aunt Sandy in Tampa. Second only to Ansel Adams, Aunt Sandy is one of the greatest photographers of our generation. Her work can be seen in photo galleries in the Chippewa Falls and Eau Claire WI area.
