Happy 4th of July American Independence Day
This year in recognition of the 4th of July, the day Americans celebrate when America got its independence from the British in 1776, I decided to simply post an image of the American flag that was displayed and waving so proudly at the United States Capitol Building. Happy 4th of July fellow Americans. Be safe, …
In Honor of Memorial Day 2020
In honor of Memorial Day 2020, during these trying times of the COVID-19 Coronavirus and social distancing, I took the opportunity to visit the Marine Corps Memorial in Arlington, Virginia.
In Honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day
In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day I took the opportunity to go over to the Martin Luther King Jr. Monument. Upon arriving my initial thoughts was that the status is white and there is a couple mountains on both sides that are white with a piece missing where I first walked through to …

Welcome to Tombstone
Welcome to Tombstone, Arizona. During the 1880’s Tombstone was bigger than Los Angeles, California. This bustling town had a lot going on in the old west. There was gambling, prostitutes, cowboys, mining, shootouts, rattlesnakes, and many other ways people could die in the west. Here are some sights you can see around Tombstone.
Memorial Day 2019
Memorial Day is a time to reflect and remember those who are no longer with us, but are not forgotten. This year I went to Tombstone, Arizona to see a bit of American history that is being preserved at Tombstone. One of the most famous gun battles of the old west was the shootout at …

灼熱ベガス
７月のラスベガスは「こんなに暑いのか！」と正直びっくり！日中は４５度越え、日が落ちた夜でも４０度近い。ちょっと歩くだけでも体力消耗が大きいので、水分補給と日焼け防止は必須。夏にベガスへ行く方は、メイン通りに近いホテルを取って、休憩を入れながらの観光をするか、メインからちょっと離れた場所の安いホテルを取り、レンタカーでの移動をお勧めします。
Memorial Day
In observance of Memorial Day 2018, I digitally modified a photo that I had taken at the Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery. The United States flag, “Old Glory,” is in color and the graves below are monochrome. I’ve given it much thought to the meaning that I was trying to obtain by this and it could …

Memorial Day 2017
It takes a special kind of person to raise their hand and swear an oath to uphold the ideals that we believe in. Unfortunately some pay the ultimate price and never make it home. Please take time to remember those who have fallen while serving in line of duty and loved ones that are gone. …
Christmas Decorations 2016
I just felt like taking some photos of some Christmas decorations to catch a little Christmas spirit. Here are a few shots.
Only in Israel
With Hanukkah coming up I thought it would be neat to show some things that you will only see in Israel. A perfect parking job. More Women fly F-16’s in Israel than drive cars in Saudi Arabia. Hasidic family crossing sign. Soldiers who bring their kids to work. Sudoku while swimming in the Dead Sea. …
I am a Veteran
I am a veteran. I chose to serve my country, not because it was cool, but because I though it was the right thing to do. I didn’t join to try to be an sort of hero. I just wanted opportunities to travel the world, learn a decent job, and get a college degree. I …
