Biker Ausflug

Das schöne Wetter der vergangenen Tage lockte natürlich auch die Motorradfahrer auf die Straße. Diese blankgeputzten Exemplare fuhren uns am Tankumsee vor die Linse. Da die Besitzer auch nichts dagegen hatten, haben Anke und ich gleich die Gelegenheit genutzt und ein paar Fotos geschossen.
The beautiful weather of the past few days naturally attracted motorcyclists to the road. These brightly cleaned specimens drove us at the Tankumsee before the lens. Since the owners also had nothing against it, Anke and I immediately took the opportunity and shot a few photos.

Dogwood in the Spring

For years I am driving to Yosemite in Spring to see the blossoms of the dogwoods. They are such beautiful flowers, no matter whether they are the white or red variety. As a surprise I found a dogwood in a nursery and planted her in our backyard. Every year I am watching her, but she was not ready to show me her blossoms. This year, however, she surprised me with this Beauty.

Traveling the Past – Merced River & North Fork of Merced River

With the Gold Rush, many Travelers from many places tried their luck by digging for gold. The lucky ones, moved on to San Francisco and built beautiful expensive homes. Left are holes, closed mines, and all sorts of Environmental Leftovers. Here, a few photos taken during a recent hike up into the North Fork of the Merced River that so many people know from visiting the Yosemite Park.
