Another amazing instance of fog last evening, but this time it covered pretty much the entire view from Grizzly Peak. I arrived just before the sun disappeared and found the blanket of thick fog covering all three bridges, and pretty much everything else below my lofty perch.

This was taken in Lower Antelope Canyon. My three friends, Tyler, John, and Suad, had been to the upper canyon the year before, and were […]

I’ve been using a Drobo for several months now and overall am very pleased with it. Most of the things I’d heard about it before I decided to buy are spot on, and its many benefits are both useful and have removed one of many sources of anxiety in my life, worry about sudden disk failure and […]
