This week’s video features the first song I ever registered for a copyright. Realistically, one owns the copyright to art one creates and places on media (such as video, CD, or painting.) However, it becomes a lot easier to prove you indeed created the original artwork when you register it with the U. S. Copyright […]
Happy Veteran’s Day – a national holiday! I awoke this morning to a 4.8 Richter scale magnitude earthquake on the island. But it was no big deal. It used to happen all the time where I grew up in California’s Bay Area, in the Navy port town of Alameda. It seems fitting, on Veteran’s Day, […]
Its November again, and time to adjust to standard time once more for some of you. Give thanks, take it slower during these shorter days, and enjoy this week’s video.
Hi folks, It’s Sunday, and I’m going for a drive again in the Wander. This time, it is to Arizona and the wonderful Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. This park contains the only region in the United States with this type of cactus. It likes the environment frost-free as it grows hedge-high, multi-stemmed, and nearly […]
Howdy again! I’m still on a country western kick, and this week share a video of a Texas rodeo I filmed some years ago. Literally, these little rodeos are a “kick,” and a great way to spend a Fall or Summer evening with friends and family. Note that nothing and nobody got hurt or killed […]
Howdy, folks! It’s fall again, and time to enjoy some of that “purdy” pretty colorful tree, grass and shrub autumn foliage. Wherever you may live in the Northern Hemisphere, the shorter days and cooler temperatures bring changes to our landscapes. These changes include ripening nuts, grass seeds and berries, changing leaf colors, and bustling wildlife […]
As last week I posted about train trips, you might have guessed the next post would be about road journeys. You are right. Except this was not just any old road trip. It was an epic road journey that covered 48 of 50 states, lasted nearly a year, and covered 50,000 miles of city streets, […]
It’s the first day of Fall, 2019, and I’m thinkin’ of ramblin’ n’ travelin’… In the past, I’ve taken some exceptional rides on long-distance trains. The first was when I was three years old. I went with my family on a Santa Fe train trip from California to Missouri, and it was an experience I […]
As the days get shorter and nights get longer, I believe it’s time to literally “lighten up!” For this post, I have a video called “Neonpolitan,” which features The Neon Museum in Las Vegas, Nevada, U.S.A. Disney’s Electrical Parade inspired the original music, which seemed appropriate for these playgrounds: Disney theme parks and the Las […]
