Best Wishes for 2017

Belated best wishes everyone for a 2017 full of fond memories! Also hope 2016 treated you well. Susan, the kids (our three Springer Spaniels), and me weathered the year fairly well. Among the highlights, Susan and I returned to Tanzania; spent more time exploring Rocky Mountain National Park; returned to Yellowstone; sold a few photos; visited family and friends in the S.F Bay Area; and I began teaching skiing part time at Winter Park in Colorado. Low lights included the election and a tooth implant — unsure which was worse. This coming year, travel plans include Fall trips to the SF Bay Area, to Ann Arbor (to visit friends and see the Blue [Michigan] play) and to New York for an early Thanksgiving with the Bruno Family; a return trip to Kenya (and an opportunity to trek to the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. Also plan a winter trip to Yellowstone in February. Susan still enjoys her work, we’re playing tennis again and continue to run so we’re feeling fairly healthy … hope the same for you. Again Happy New Year and keep in touch. Below are some of my favorite photos for 2016 (also began designing collages and triptychs).
