Between climbs I saw this Texas Spiny Lizard I took this photo while rock climbing with my brother, Nick, in Austin, Texas. We had been on some routes in the Barton Creek Greenbelt. We did some easy routes and some fun routes, but nothing too challenging. We had spent eight hours climbing at Reimers Ranch […]
As we drove up to the Grand Canyon, [we knew it would be a unique experience] Before this trip, I had never been in Arizona during the winter. My last trip to the Grand Canyon had been with my family in July. It was one of the hottest experiences that I can remember. With that […]
[The] beach is accessed by going through a gap in a stone wall! Another photo from the honeymoon of a lifetime that Jill and I had in Maui! This one was from a beach that we found ourselves at regularly while we were there, Secret Cove Beach. This beach is accessed by going through a […]

We soon found ourselves in a rainforest wonderland When Jill and I were traveling on the Road to Hana, the Wailua Iki Falls were a fun detour. We started by following the directions of going up the hill on the trail and following it to the right. We stayed on this trail for maybe 50 […]
The reefs were teeming with green sea turtles! The three photos that I contributed to this month’s underwater album all came from snorkeling adventures on my honeymoon. Jill and I got married in November, and we quickly made our way to Maui. There we spent 10 days taking in the sun, the hikes, the waterfalls, […]
The spinelets on this urchin can sting. This month I am featuring two urchins. I am always surprised when I come upon a reef that is covered in urchins. They are such peculiar creatures that spend most of their life in the exact same spot every day just eating the algae that is close enough […]
