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 is the furnace of transformation.


"Solitude is the furnace of transformation."

Henri Nouwen

I am headed to the Utah canyon country for the next four days for my annual post-Thanksgiving retreat. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers, that I might receive spiritual insight.  Thank you :)
