B&W Photography, Amsterdam NL

Photography is my art. I love taking photos and trying to compose a nice scene to make a subject look interesting. Most of my photography is of buildings and places but I like to take pictures of almost anything that I think really captures the look and feel of a person, place or thing.

Teotihuacan Pyramids, Mexico City Mexico

August 2016 While working in Mexico City Mexico I had an extra day in town and since it was my first time ever to Mexico I was compelled to do some exploring and had heard from a friend about some nearby ancient pyramids from a civilization that pre-dated the Aztecs by over 500 years.

Grover’s Bar & Grill, East Amherst New York

August 2016 Grover’s Bar and Grill is a place known by locals for their very large outstanding tasty burgers, where you write your name on a chalkboard, grab a beer and stand by the bar to wait for your name to be called for a seat.  It’s a very popular place so expect a short…

Fernando’s Costa Del Sol, Cameron Park CA

Having only just tried eating Pupusas for the first time this year while on a road trip thru Barstow, I found I really liked them and I thought I’d never see this type of food again. I was happy to find out I was wrong about that.

The Kitchen Restaurant, Sacramento Ca

December 2012 What’s to say that hasn’t already been posted a thousand times already about The Kitchen Restaurant in Sacramento? Simply put, this place is the best. Everything is top notch. It’s spendy but well worth it.

Various Pubs, Amsterdam NL

Spud Point Crab Co., Bodega Bay CA

June 2016 There’s a little town along the coast in Northern California just north of San Francisco where Alfred Hitchcock filmed the famous movie The Birds. It’s called Bodega Bay. It’s a beautiful area along the coast to drive around where the city has a small town feel who’s economy is tied to the coastal…

New York Beer Project, Lockport NY

July 2016 While working in Pennsylvania for a couple of weeks, I drove to upstate New York over the weekend to check out Niagara Falls and visit a friend. One afternoon after driving around we went out to lunch at a really great new-ish brew pub in the local area that makes their own beer…
