a dreamcatcher I recently purchased from Moses, a southbound through hiker, in Delaware Water Gap where we were working. All materials were found in the woods. Support your local economy!
relaxation
This was one of the best days of 2008 for me. It was a gorgeous day and we had a great trip in Grayson Highlands State Park hiking from the valley alongside a tumbling trout stream with waterfalls to being on top of it all in the unique environ that is the highlands.
how I love your curves
fog rolling in
Every evening outside of Fontana Dam at the edge of the Great Smokies the fog rolled in and felt like an air conditioner.

Part of the highland experience.
its a color land
On the streambank of Poverty Creek, one of my favorite camping spots outside of Blacksburg and right over Brush Mountain from where I used to live. She was looking towards some trapazoidal cavities a pileated woodpecker made looking for a meal.

The only spot relative to Blacksburg that the Nature Conservancy owns is Falls Ridge, a gorgeous spot known for tons of wildflowers in the spring, blankets of trilliums plus bloodroot, showy orchid, columbine along the cliffs, a travertine waterfall, a kiln, and much much more.
swirling water
A good day while my cousin Griff was up visiting and a bunch of us went to the Cascades, the most popular spot in the Jefferson National Forest inside the New River Valley.

Another good day.
clearing the head
Quick bike trips to the Duckpond are always fun. It was really only my hangout when the weeping cherry trees bloom, one of my favorites.
light on ripples
This trippy serendipitous moment came about as I was filming a river otter swimming around, twirling and barking.
we all need something to lean on sometimes
An old weeping willow at the duckpond on VT campus. The tree has long been used to relieve headache and reduce fevers since salicylic acid, the precursor to aspirin, is found in the bark from which teas can be made.
Chicken of the woods anyone? mm
the essence of life
Bloodroot, one of the first flowers of the Appalachian Mountains to spring, opening up.

Momma heron coming to feed her youngins. The gluttonous guttural sounds of the young herons reminded me of dinosaurs. I love this shot which takes me back to my time on Woodstock Pond at York River State Park, a beautiful place.
