| 2002_AZ_GRC_N_Scenery | 93 | AZ -- Grand Canyon Natl Park -- North Rim -- Scenery
Two years before, my visit to the Grand Canyon had been one of the highlights of the trip. I decided to repeat the visit on this trip. Then, I had visited the South Rim of the canyon. It had been beautiful weather then and visibility had been incredible. This time, I opted for the much less visited... | |

During the entire drive from my time-share in the Mojave Desert, I'd been sitting in smog. There was smog in the valleys, smog at Mt Palomar, smog in the San Diego suburbs and finally, I got to Cabrillo and... the entire area was awash in fog from the ocean. While this meant that my pictures of San... | |

Silver Lakes Vacation Club -- 6/1/2002 to 6/8/2002
This was a total mistake. I can't handle sales people and they said I "won" a free timeshare which cost me thousands of dollars to get rid of. | |
| 2002_CA_HHills | 65 | CA -- Hollywood Hills -- Forest Lawn Memorial Park | |
| 2002_CA_Joshua_Tree | 39 | CA -- Joshua Tree Natl Park
I'm not sure what I thought the attraction of Joshua Tree would be. At this point, I was pretty tired of deserts. I think the main reason I wanted to go there was because of a the title of the "Joshua Tree" U2 album.
The park is mostly known for its groves a Joshua trees (surprise!). I asked the... | |

Manzanar is still a work in progress.

While some would consider that I have a morbid interest in cemeteries (personally, I love the histories of the people buried there, the frequent beauty of the places, and the fact that they're easy to photograph), I entered this cemetery almost by accident.

The Veteran's Day Tribute 2002 was a military convention held in Washington DC.

| 2002_DC_Block_020409 | 68 | AFL-CIO Headquarters -- Tom Block's art show reception
My neighbor, Tom Block, is a painter. He had an exhibition at the AFL-CIO headquarters near the White House that I went to and took some pictures from. In these pre-digital days, the photos were a crap shoot and they didn't turn out that well. Tom immediately, however, said that he was really glad I was... | |

Art Buchwald, the Washington Post humorist, was doing a book-signing locally so I trudged up to the Dupont Circle area to see him. He's certainly an interesting looking person and he radiates warmth and cheer. While I was there, he pointed over to a shelf with best sellers and said "Death and decay.... | |

| 2002_DC_Capitol | 41 | DC -- U.S. Capitol (exterior)
The view of the Capitol from the Mall is still largely unobstructed. The opposite side, however, is cluttered by the construction of the Capitol Visitor Center (CVC) which was pushed along after that idiot shot his way into the building in the 1990's. The CVC will end up being a below-ground facility so... | |

Two trips around the Tidal Basin during cherry blossom season. | |
| 2002_DC_Cleese_020611 | 6 | Smithsonian Associates -- John Cleese
While it was a thrill to see John Cleese, his presentation didn't go so well. There was a moderator who decided it would be appropriate to spend more time discussing his own feelings than John's. And there was a long retrospective film of John's ventures (including Monty Python of course but including a... | |

This show is filmed at George Washington University every weekday night. I attended a number of shows, originally to see what it was like and then to see who was on. Unfortunately, you're not allowed to actually film during broadcasting so all of the shots I have are before or after. BTW, some of the... | |

| 2002_DC_DOC | 6 | DC -- Dept of Commerce Building (Herbert C. Hoover Bldg) | |
| 2002_DC_DOC_XMas_021213 | 6 | Dept of Commerce -- Event: Christmas show
Why they hold events in the Commerce lobby is beyond me. The acoustics are horrible, in large part because of the metal ceiling which reflects everything, and if you move outside of a very small radius, the background noise drowns out everything. | |

This was the 44th Friends of the National Zoo (FONZ) Annual Meeting. They meet once a year to announce the new board of directors and let us know what's going on in the zoo.

| 2002_DC_JSS_021115 | 8 | James Smithson Society event -- American History (Invention night)
The Smithsonian sponsored an adults-only event at an exhibit they had dealing with inventions. Beverages--milk and cookies--were provided. Frankly, I've never been a creative person so I really couldn't relate to much of what was there. It was interesting playing the game with the blocks on the... | |

At work, people had recommended that I take the coastal highway in California. I wasn't going to have the time to do that. People at the party said I should take in the coastal highway in Oregon if I could. I figured, what the heck.
Keep in mind that coastal highways have a trade-off. They... | |

It was after Christmas. I had been downtown filming most of the night, using my handy tripod. I figured I should catch Iwo Jima at night as well. I pulled in about 12:15am, only to find that you weren't allowed to park after midnight. Quickly, I ran around the monument taking pictures and left... | |

Ken Burns was at the Costco in Pentagon City to promote the DVD version of the "Civil War" documentary series that he did for PBS. I thought it would be crowded but it wasn't--I guess $85 items aren't exactly impulse buys. As he sat signing next to a drip from a leak in the ceiling, he said he was... | |

A highlight of my trip to New England right before the September 11 attack in 2001 had been a whaling trip outside of Cape Cod where I got to watch minke whales jumping out of the water. It was great. That was the major reason I decided to go back to Massachusetts at the same time this year and it was... | |
