Katy Trail



Exploring an old railroad bridge along the Katy Trail bikeway we encountered the fastest lizard in the world who disappeared under the bridge. We looked and waited but never saw anything more than the initial streak of him running for cover.

Missouri Rhineland



Olivia checks out some interesting rocks along the Katy Trail in Missouri. The Missouri Rhineland area was settled by German immigrants who brought their grape growing and wine making traditions with them. Before prohibition Missouri was the 2nd biggest wine producing state in the USA.

They've Landed!




"Cloud Gate" Millenium Park, Chicago, Illinois June 2008

Maybe I was the only one who didn't know about this thing but what a cool surprise to walk up a rise in Millennium Park in Chicago and come across this! The abstract reflections are from standing underneath and looking up.
