This is my beautiful granddaughter. She, her mother and brother came over for dinner last night and we went to the park. It was such a good day, and it was still light at 6:00 PM and still warm. I love taking pictures of her and will use this blog to celebrate her and others in my family from time to time. I will generally try and post images on a daily or weekly basis mostly from my travels since that is the purpose of the blog.

It is my intention to share with any who read it the beauty and majesty  of the world, and all that it has to offer. I hope that people will find the blog interesting and useful and the ideas fruitful. It is my first attempt at blogging so I have no roadmap or guide to follow only the blogs that I have read over the years. I will not introduce any politics into the blog, that is not my purpose.

When I was in high school, I worked out at an old fashion gym, way before weight machines, just real free weights. They were always sweaty so before you used them you would need to wipe them down with a rag you brought with you. On the wall of the gym in big letters, so everyone could see it were the words- "no talk of religion or politics" in the gym. I am not sure that would work today with the 24 hour news cycle, but it worked back then. I will stick to that principal in this blog.

Lets see where this goes. Eric
