I’ve always wanted to ride a horse on the beach. Fortunately, my loving family made sure I got a chance to live my dream. The lesson: if you’ve got something you’ve always wanted to do, do it soon. I had a great time but it took me several days to recover from spending three hours [...]

It’s important for us to take responsibility for our own health, especially as we get older. We also need to set a good example for the younger people in our midst. I believe these things. We went to Balboa Park to celebrate Mother’s Day last weekend. A group of Native American tribes were holding an [...]

My dad Gerry Pearce was 33 years old when I took this picture of him back in the summer of 1962. I was three. This was the first photograph I ever took. I still remember holding the big, heavy black camera in my small hands and trying to keep it steady while at the same [...]

This is a nice action shot from 41 years ago. You’ll notice that I am being photographed from above, with a cliff behind me and rocks about a hundred feet below. Nobody said it wasn’t OK to climb up the sheer face of an ice-covered mountain until after I had done it! If it was [...]

Alexis and I went to the local elementary school to check out the science fair exhibits. One kid wanted to figure out which of his two dogs was smarter.

Today my beloved spouse celebrates a birthday. To commemorate this event on-line, I offer a Spirograph flower I drew in 1968. Did you know that Spirograph patterns are hypotrochoids and epitrochoids? Share on Facebook
