I took these photos on my recent trip to Belize/Guatemala (recaps are here for the first half of the trip and here for the second half). All of these pics were taken while diving or snorkeling in various areas of the Belize Barrier Reef. Hope you like them!
Wow – it’s already been more than 2 weeks since I posted part 1 of my Belize/Guatemala trip recap! I’ve been teaching some summer session engineering courses which has kept my days full so time has flown by. I’m glad I finally found some time to finish up part 2 though. It’s been fun to reminisce!
A few days ago I returned home after a 10-day trip to Belize and Guatemala. I went on the trip as a 30th birthday present to myself. The trip was long enough that I’m going to split my recap into 2 parts; here’s part 1!
Hello everybody and welcome to Episode 15 of What’s in that Hole?, a fun series I’m writing for my blog. In the last episode, we traveled to San Francisco’s Presidio for our holes. This time, we’re on the road again but much closer to home – I found today’s holes on my recent stop at the Casa Grande Ruins National Monument, which is between Tucson and Phoenix.
On a recent drive between Phoenix and Tucson, I made a snap decision to visit the Casa Grande Ruins National Monument. The ruins are off the main route between the two cities, but aren’t too far out of the way. Still, in my dozens of trips back and forth between Tucson and Phoenix, this was the first time I took the time to check out the ruins.
Hello everybody and welcome to Episode 14 of What’s in that Hole?, a fun series I’m writing for my blog. In the last episode, we were at my home in Tucson spying on bees. Today, we’re further afield, checking out something I saw on my recent trip to San Francisco.
Last week was spring break at the University of Arizona. Since I’m just working part time and my only duty is teaching, I took the opportunity to travel to San Francisco to see some friends. Originally, my trip was actually planned for a weekend in February but a storm messed up air travel in the area and my flights were cancelled. In the end, it was for the best because the change gave me more time in SF plus there was much better weather!
Last fall, I ventured down to the Titan Missile Museum with a friend who was visiting from out of town. Actually, we had gone down to Nogales, Mexico and then back up Tubac, so technically we were heading back up to Tucson when we stopped there. Semantics aside, here’s my summary of the visit.
Hello everybody and welcome to Episode 11 of What’s in that Hole?, a fun series I’m writing for my blog. Last time I attempted to make you (and myself) more cultured with a hole I found at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC. In this episode, though, we’ll get back to nature. Today’s hole is extra special – it’s an underwater hole!
Hello everybody and welcome to Episode 10 of What’s in that Hole?, a new series I’m writing for my blog. In the last episode, we not only found a hole, but caught and released its occupant, saving the critter from my dad’s wrath and giving it a new lease on life. Today we take things in a completely different direction with a hole I found on a recent trip to Washington, DC. Warning: there’s culture in this post!
Hello everybody and welcome to Episode 9 of What’s in that Hole?, a new series I’m writing for my blog. In the last episode, we found some animals that reside at a ranch near Tucson. This time, we travel to my dad’s house in Albuquerque in the hopes of finding something new and exciting!
Once upon a time, there was a puffer. A poor, lonely soul, this puffer latched on to any being that so much as glanced at him, including of course photograph-taking scuba divers.
