Dear Cole,

I've just returned from a trip to Oklahoma and brought home more photographs. This time a slice of Americana, Route 66.

My best friend from high school, Wayne, joined me and we had a great time driving and photographing.

I'm home for a few days and then off again to California, where I always find something interesting to photograph at the beach.

Cole


New Images From Route 66
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bingo Thursdays I've always dreamed of driving all 2448 miles of Route 66 in a convertible. While I didn't completely fulfill this dream, I did get to drive a couple hundred miles in a minivan!

It was fascinating to step back in time and see what America was like before freeways. Route 66 Facts

View the new images and give me your thoughts!


Name That Image Contest
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Unnamed I took this picture on my Route 66 trip and have been struggling to name it. I had initially called it "Earrings" but that just doesn't feel quite right.

Please help me name this image and the winner will receive one of my "Old Car Interior" lithographs.

Old Shoes What does Crystal Light, AT&T and The West Wing have in common?

They each have rented my picture "Old Shoes" which was used as a prop for filming. My work is being promoted through a company called Art Pic in Los Angeles.

Watch The West Wing for me and let me know if you see my "Old Shoes" on the wall!
