The big fireworks finale was going on. Although it was spectacular, I was more fascinated about how it was lighting up the park. (Milwaukee Lakefront, 2010)

There was actually a second photo because I wanted to be on a local grocery store’s website. They had a map of all the places their red bag had been brought to (https://www.sendiks.com/about-us/where-in-the-world-2). I took a few while I was in Doha, but I used the one from this space. This is the tasteful photo without the bag. You can see the other one on the website. (Doha, Qatar 2016)

The sign actually guides hikers to protect the local ecosystem. It did strike me as odd given the wide open surroundings. It also seems like sometimes we need to step off the designated walkway in life. (Arizona, 1998)

Faro del Castillo San Felipe del Morro is the lighthouse at the entrance to San Juan Harbor. It was rebuilt in 1908 and is one of the most prominent sites at El Morro. (San Juan Antiguo, Puerto Rico, 2003)
