Time Moves On

It may seem that more of the recent posts are not as positive as they have been in the past. It might be that after 8 months of groundhog days, it has begun to wear on me. I am trying to keep outside interests such as my photography while here. I think this helps out a considerable amount. I have been fortunate to have a good friend, Cynthia Roelle who shares an interest in photography. We have been able to head out about once a week to travel around Camp Victory and take photos of just about everything interesting here. We are very limited on what we can photograph, so that adds an additional challenge. This past week, Ben Grimes joined us and will probably be joining us on all of our future photo outings until his departure. We went to the Victory Over America Palace to photograph some of the destruction that occurred a few years ago. We went there in the middle of the afternoon and the temperatures were around 115 degrees with no breeze at all. We stayed for about an hour and a half to captured what we could, but since I forgot to bring my tripod and the lighting was so bad, I have planned on going back a few more times before we leave for good. I have attached a few pictures from our recent trips there.
