Welcome! I am a contemplative thinker and photographer from Colorado. In this blog, you'll discover photographs that I've taken on my hiking and backpacking trips, mostly in the American West. I've paired these with my favorite inspirational and philosophical quotes - literary passages that emphasize the innate spirituality of the natural world. I hope you enjoy them!

Solitude strips away the surface self and puts us in touch with the deep self grounded in God.


Solitude strips away the surface self and puts us in touch with the deep self grounded in God.  It is then that we discover our deepest, most heartfelt longings and learn to pay attention to what they have to say.
