Click here for a photo album of some of my photography. I still have many old photos to add and I also photograph new scenes every year. I photographed this scene in Olympic National Park, below the view point at the end of the trail leading from the parking lot just before the first tunnel on the Hurricane Ridge Road. |

Click here to read some history articles that I've written. I like researching and piecing together obscure or generally overlooked or forgotten local history, to help retain some local cultural heritage from slowly fading away. These are little histories that bring into focus a few more details about subjects seldom written about. |

Click here to read the genealogy page that I have started. The woman in the photograph cranking the Model-T Ford is my grandmother. I first became interested in genealogy in 1997 after visiting an old abandoned farm house, in northern Minnesota, that belonged to two of my great-grandparents. |

I made this animated graphic of an adult female hummingbird and its young, at their nest, by making a video of them and then capturing a couple frames from the video. The frames were converted to 8-bit (256 color) graphics and then saved as an animated GIF file using Microsoft GIF Animator. |

Click here to download a VRML world terrain model of Mount Rainier and of Mount St. Helens. I created each VRML world with a USGS digital orthophoto draped over a USGS DEM. Each VRML world can be viewed as a full screen interactive 3D object, using a VRML browser or plug-in enabled web browser. |
