Wether I'm cooking or before Covid, going out to eat all over.  These days I'm obviously doing a lot more cooking.  I actually like fishing, although these days, I don't get out as much as I wish.  But I do.  Let's see, what else?  Bicycle riding almost daily.  

How about bicycling?  


No, I finished cycling when I finished school.
I love the long back roads. 
Road trips is my passion.
I lost my passion or photography a bit. 
The market is flooded with all kinds of images.

You know I have always wondered about that.  Like a few months ago, I took a break from photography.  It wasn't long, just a few weeks where I didn't even pick up my camera.  I've wondered how people fall off the photography wagon and what inspires them to get back on.

I felt the same way sometimes but I do it as a therapy

Not one photo.
A few with my phone, but more photos for sharing. 
Instagram type shots.
My 3 SLR’s and bridge camera are piking up dust.

I had a 2 year break from photography I want to say 7 years ago.  It happens.  Take your break and enjoy the time off.  For me, when I came back, my interest and enjoyment for photography went up.

Road trips are fun, do you drive far on your typical drive?  I seem to remember you scout locations for your work right?  I'm talking about your personal drives here.

WOW you really are a road warrior.  Can't remember if I shared with you in the past that my father back in the day was a truck driver.  He drove all the time.  Personally I can't do it everyday.  Anything over 5 hours and I need to take a break, I get super tired regardless of how much rest that I had the night before.

I think road trips are king these days.  Most are not excited about flying these days.

Looking forward to getting out on a little drive this weekend.  Matter of fact in 3 hours, I gas up, and load up the car to drive up north.
