Picture of the Day - 9/2/08 (LAST)

One last shot the sums up the trip for me. This was taken by good friend Robert Morrow as Sheila and I were walking back to the car after completing yet another covered bridge photograph in Indiana. We recently celebrated our 31st anniversary during this trip and that this extraordinary woman has chosen to stick with me through all these years has been a real blessing from God. Even though she's experienced chronic headaches for the last several years (much better now that we've found a couple great doctors), she volunteered to do much of the driving so I could concentrate on my photography. She shares with me a natural curiosity to "see what's around the next bend" in the road. She's the perfect travel partner and I love her with all my heart!

Sheila, this picture is for you!

Picture of the Day - 9/1/08

These grain elevators were located off I-70 between Limon and Burlington. What caught my eye was the wispy clouds and deep blue sky. After traveling through several mid-western states with gray skies and brownish crops, the green grass was a relief.

This will be the last dispatch of the "Picture of the Day", as we have arrived back home to blue Colorado skies. Sheila and I hope you've enjoyed viewing these images as much as we've enjoyed selecting them from among the hundreds shot each day - a task that was actually pretty challenging. How does one select the best and most representative picture from the myriad taken each day? Well, wrapping things up, we lived successfully in our 24-foot trailer for six weeks and traveled over 10,000 miles - a new record! We appreciated the many positive comments from several of you and perhaps there will be another Picture of the Day sequence in the future.
