Employment as a freelance travel writer/photographer provides many opportunities for traveling.

Seeing these historical landmarks made me proud to be an American. One is reminded of the cost of our freedom, and how very precious it is.

The remote Palouse region is well known by Northwest landscape photographers. I spent several enjoyable hours photographing its undulating hills.

One of our fun outings was visiting River City Brewing. They put us to work in the brewery, making our own small batch of beer.

I’m heading to Spokane to discover the delights of its “foodie” scene. For two days I literally will be “wined and dined” by Visit Spokane.

I have been invited on an 8-day/7-night river cruise on the Columbia and Snake Rivers as a hosted travel writer.

On four consecutive Saturdays we’ve met at various locations and spent three hours capturing images of whatever took our fancy.

While not every topic lends itself to storytelling, there are some that allow me to imagine myself as one of the travelers.
