Photo-A-Day 2013: Week 30

I returned to SoCal for the week of July 22-28. And even with all the recent travel, I couldn’t wait to get away to Palm Springs on Thursday night for two days of doing absolutely nothing at all. Let’s take a look at the week’s images!

Photo-A-Day 2013: Week 29

I was lucky enough to spend time in nine states during the week of July 15-21 — California, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine plus Texas, Illinois and Pennsylvania on flight layovers. The best images of the week definitely come from the Midwest and New England. Let’s take a look! (Remember, to see any image at full size, just click on it.)
