Top Three Books: 
The Stranger, The Shadow of the Wind, and The Alchemist.

Scariest Moment While Hiking: 
A Grizzly Bear walked on to the trail thirty feet in front of my wife and I.  Do bears poop in the woods? I don’t know, but I sure did. 

Top Three Favorite Films: 
Shawshank Redemption, the original Star Wars Trilogy (I know what you’re thinking—I’m cool!) and Edward Scissorhands.

Worst Job I Ever Had:  
I worked at KFC as a Shift Supervisor. I was robbed, covered in grease burns, wore a pink uniform, and only made six dollars an hour.

People I’ve Been Confused For: 
David Schwimmer, the first “Blues Clues” guy, and Keanu Reeves but slower.


THE STORY OF THREE LENSES

TELEPHOTO
Whenever I hike, I carry three lenses with me.  The first is always the telephoto lens. I never know what’s going to pop out on the trail, so I keep this in my hands at all times.  This little bear cub (above) wandered to the side of the road. Now, you would think the momma bear that was near by should be my first concern. Actually, the car that backed into me as I took this picture was more dangerous. 

MACRO
The other lens I always carry in my kit is the macro lens.  I love bugs (except when they surprise me and make me scream like a child in Walmart—it’s embarrassing).   The picture above is one of my first shots with the macro lens.  I was shooting a cross country meet and as I waited for the runners, he wandered up next to me.  After startling him with my manly scream, he posed for me. This shot hooked me into photography.

WIDE ANGLE
The wide angle lens is the final lens in my pack.  It usually has a polarizer attached to it to help    enhance the sky, water,  or reflection. Bring a tripod for sharper shots, for extra weight training, and for defense.
