I took these images the end of 2020 while on a Corvette trip with the National Corvette Museum called the “One Lap of Kentucky”. After the event, we made a quick trip over to Asheville for a couple of days. Our plan was to drive along the Blue Ridge Parkway…
I’ve started to reprocess images from trips I took 10 years ago. Cameras weren’t nearly as good as they are today, but the post processing capabilities are light years more advanced. And, my skill in using these tools is definitely better today than it was in 2011 when I took…
One of the days in Cape Town at the beginning of our adventure, we had some time on our own to explore the area. We decide to purchase one of the hop on and off bus passes and head off on a trip around the Cape Town area. We headed…
After leaving Victoria Falls, we boarded a train, the Rovos Rail, and headed south to Pretoria South Africa. We would spend three nights on the train and follow this route south. We’ll..not exactly.. this is a car route from Google maps… we were on a train… but you get the…

One evening as we were cruising down the riverbed, our tracker spotted this little guy on the bank resting peacefully. Interestingly, the lights and our presents really didn’t seem to bother him too much. …
I’m back from my trip to South Africa and I can only say that it was everything I had hoped it would be and more! We started the journey in Cape Town, traveled to Victoria Falls, road a train back to Johannesburg and then flew to Thornybush Game Reserve ,…
We made it home from Bowling Green where our Southern Texas caravan joined close to 10,000 other corvettes to visit the National Corvette Museum. We had the opportunity to actually see several C8 cars, sit in them, see the car cut-away and the engine models. We also visited the museum…
