Lights, Motors, Action... Disney Style

WoW... if you're a guy... and you enjoy driving your car as fast as you can.... then this is the attraction for you... I have to admit that I was memorized by the action as thes "little" Opel's that have been severely modified by Disney to meet their needs did their tricks on the set... and to see how many of the camera trick are carried out wa pretty cool indeed to see... maybe the most impressive stunt was the parellel parking of FIVE MOVING CARS to a dead stop!!! Truly Amazing!! I'm told that this attraction actually came from Disney land in Paris... no matter... it's a GREAT show!!

Florida ... Relatives

Even coming to Florida is about seeing relatives... and in this case we were able to meet Tyler... my brother's son for the first time... even if it rained a lot of the day in the Magic Kingdom... it still didn't detract from the fun of being at Disney.... it just reminded us of the Philippines :-0

Visit to Tara

After leaving Rushmore... we headed to Tara's (my youngest sister...) on the way to Florida... only God really knows how many years its been since we've seen each other... but for sure it's been more than 16 years (since Sandra and I got married)... it's amazing that it's been so very long...

Mt. Rushmore

It's was great to be able to stop by and see Mount Rushmore again after many years... and it was actually amazing to see how the National Parks and Services has added an amphitheater along with a walking path that allows you to get right underneath the carvings... I know for myself I had visited this sight as a young child and it created a lifetime memory... so I'm hoping the same holds true for my kids today...

Yellowstone... amazing colors

At the Midway Geyser Basin we saw the most amazing colors that nature creates... this picture is of the "grand Prismatic Spring" ... and keep in mind that I am NOT a professional photographer... nor was the stage set for this picture... it's just a capturing of God's handy work in His creation by a novice!! and even this picture does not do the actual landscape justice as to its full beauty.

Yellowstone... Are We Still On Earth??

Yellowstone National Park is quite an interesting and exciting place to visit... you come around the corner and see this scene and you have to wonder if you've departed earth for another planet somewhere else in the universe... because we "know" that our earth does not steam and shoot steam vents into the air like we see at Yellowstone...

Dust Devils

I've seen "Dust Devils" before... but had never had the opportunity to capture one on picture before... this was as we were crossing Idaho... and it might actually be the best defined dust devil I've actually seen... sorry... no video of the event...
