The best travel experience I’ve had 2018 was definitely my solo trip to Capitol Reef National Park in September. Of course, the trip was awesome. It made me realize the freedom of solo travel. I didn’t have to sleep and wake on schedule. I could choose what to eat and where to dine. And I could stop at any turnout and any hiking trail. Continue reading “Photo of the Day!”

And of course, how can I forget this great sunset which I witnessed in early August? Seeing this makes me look forward to summer again despite the sweltering heat. Continue reading “Photo of the Day!”

Catching people unaware – Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge
One way for a landscape photographer to catch people unaware: aim the camera higher than the height the people are standing or you can do what I do – go to a crowded place (like the City of Phoenix in China) and I can guarantee you can catch someone unaware.
Tuesday Photo Challenge – Challenge
When I think of challenge, I think of my hiking adventure up Waterfall Canyon in 2017.

Tuesday Photo Challenge – Tranquil
When I think tranquil, I think calm waters.


When I think tranquil, I also think spending a few hours watching animals live their lives.

Here is a look from my third hike this year – the hike that probably brought new fears to my life and had the most impact on my hiking experience even though I can most definitely blame myself for wearing poor traction shoes on this hike. Continue reading “Photo of the Day!”

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge: Splash

I absolutely love water photography and take every chance I can get to photograph it. This picture is from my most recent trip to Bear Lake. It was my second time to visit this beautiful lake. My first time was in September. This time, I came with my mom and her friends. I was once again the navigator.
There we were standing on the beach and just as I was about to take some pictures of the water since I didn’t get many great pictures the first time, our friends decided to skip stones. He’s quite good at this.

This is his son’s attempt. His son basically picked up a big ol’ rock and threw it into the water. The rock landed with a loud plop.
Which Ways to Bear Lake Again?

When my mom called my former student’s mother, aka her friend, last Saturday, I knew this Thanksgiving would be similar to last year’s Christmas – we would be spending the day with my former student’s family. Continue reading “Which Ways to Bear Lake Again?”

Funny – Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge

I went on a day trip yesterday. It wasn’t to any place new. I went to Bear Lake back in September, during Labor Day weekend. The only difference this time was I wasn’t the one driving and we went all the way to Montpelier, Idaho. Along the way, I saw an abundance of bear statues. I’m guessing it’s to honor the name of “Bear Lake”.
This cute bear statue was outside the restaurant we had lunch at in Paris, Idaho. I took this picture after everyone went into the restaurant. I can never resist a bear with that smile. 🙂

Every year, right about the week of Thanksgiving, I will begin to reflect upon the year – travels, hiking, adventures, accomplishments, etc. Continue reading “Photo of the Day!”
