A visit to  this Aquarium is a must for visitors to the Monterey area. An average visit takes 2-3 hours, but you could spend the whole day.  FOr more information on the Monterey Bay Aquarium visit their website: http://www.mbayaq.org/

A few months back I was treated to an amazing afternoon at Moffett Airfield in Mountain View, CA. Tom and I were virtually transported back in time, and were able to view some vintage WWII aircraft. Unlike many other air shows that I've attended over the years, there were very few people -- allowing Tom and I nearly un-fettered photo opportunities. The digital pieces pictured below were created as a result of this trip.

According to Greek mythology, Icarus' father, Daedalus, a talented craftsman, attempted to escape from his exile in Crete, where he and his son were imprisoned at the hands of King Minos, the king for whom he had built the Labyrinth to imprison the Minotaur. Daedalus, the master craftsman, was exiled because he gave Minos' Daughter, Ariadne, a clew of string in order to help Theseus survive the Labyrinth.

Indian Art
Artists are the Indians of the white world. They are called dreamers who live in the clouds, improvident people who can't hold onto their money, people who don't want to face 'reality'. They say the same things about Indians.  The world in which you paint a picture in your mind, a picture, which shows things different from what your eye sees, that is the world from which I get my visions. I tell you that is the real world!" --Lame Deer, Seeker of Visions: The Life of a Sioux Medicine Man, by artist, writer and friend of Indian people Richard Erdoes, Simon and Schuster, c. 1972, p. 44
