We visited the Tule Lake Segregation Center OTD in 2022, one of the WWII Japanese Internment Camps. A few weeks ago while camping near Flagstaff, we visited the remains of Camp Leupp on the Navajo Res, which was a temporary holding camp for Manzanar “riot” internees being transferred to Tule Lake.

Home after three days of camping with a number of friends. We didn’t do too much but hang out at camp, save an afternoon jaunt into town for lunch and some local breweries.
On This Day in 2007 we visited the birthplace of George Washington Carver, and were visited by this checkerboard-eyed butterfly during our walk there.
A few shots from our boat tour in Aialik Bay in Kenai Fjords National Park, OTD in 2018.
One of the highlights of our visit to Halifax was the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21, housed in the same dock building that served as the port of entry for immigrants. I was surprised at many of the similarities between the histories of immigration in Canada and the United States.
OTD in 2018, I hiked to Exit Glacier, my first experience with a glacier. It’s iconic for the signs showing the previous extent of the glacier in various years, clearly demonstrating how quickly the ice has receded.
I’ve been to every national park unit in the US, and this remains my most favorite park sign anywhere. It’s located on the back side of the entrance sign for the Exit Glacier area of Kenai Fjords National Park in Alaska.
One of my favorite scenic drives is Alaska Route 1 down the Turnagain Arm. Here’s a shot from my first visit there, back in 2018.
I was finally able to mark Stonehenge off my list #OnThisDay seven years ago when I passed thru suburban Utah.
Remember when Japan bombed Nebraska during WWII? You Don’t?
Well, On This Day in 2021, we visited the site where it happened.

My buddy Mikah’s short film “Canyon Chorus” is playing at the Flagstaff Film Festival in September, and he’ll be there to speak live, too. You can also watch it on his website.
On This Day in 2021, I visited the shack and farm of Aldo Leopold—one of America’s greatest figures, whose ideas helped change the way we view the natural environment and preserving America’s natural heritage.

I wrote a bit about The Two Futures of Social Media: as social media fractures, two distinct futures are unfolding—two entirely different ways to participate socially online, a fundamental divide between viral entertainment and personal community.
