I married Ruth, my high school sweetheart, in 1983 and we have four children and 6 grandchildren. I have been the worship pastor at Mission Bible Church since 2004. We are located in Minooka, a southwest suburb of Chicago. I love singing, bicycling, music, Mahler, boxing, coffee, movies, The Beatles, sunsets, coffee, Mahler, the seashore, sunsets at the seashore, coffee, and… the seashore. Originally from New York, I grew up 15 minutes from the beautiful beaches of southern Long Island. I have a Fujifilm X-T5 that I use to capture the world I see. I also enjoy writing about the images that surface in my mind and heart as I work with the images from my camera. Thanks for stopping by!

hello new day

My last post (for now) of these amazing wind turbines. I would like to say that I carefully planned this composition…that the wind turbines interesting resemblance to the sun star was intentional… but I can’t. However, I do like the way it turned out. Thanks for stopping by. Have a great week.

The third image in my “catching the wind” series. Not quite sure if a total of four images constitutes a series, but I will leave that for you to decide. Would love to climb inside one of these things some day….

The second image from a recent motorcycle ride to a wind farm not far from where we live. For some reason I am fascinated by these gigantic pinwheels and the “whoosh” sound that they make as those huge blades turn….. pretty cool! Two more will follow….in color.

August is showing it can do summer….warm days and almost cool evenings have made for some beautiful days here. You can see that Fall and Winter are on their way back…the sunrise is later and the sunset is earlier… looking forward to the change of seasons…
Middle East Conflicts Wall Memorial
I have posted many images from this location in Marseilles, IL: this is the Middle East Conflicts Wall Memorial. On a recent bicycle ride here I took more time at the memorial. I took many pictures and when I came home I noticed that I took a picture of one of the granite walls without realizing that my last name was on the wall: “Garcia.” I don’t know this brave hero, or the other fallen heroes etched on these silent, black stones, but I am so grateful for their bravery, service, valor and sacrifice.

My dear friends in Apple Genius land held my laptop hostage all week until intense negotiations finally secured it’s release. To celebrate, I am posting Miss Doris 3. Hope you enjoy.

Had a wonderful week at band camp. I brought my phone, so I did not take many pictures, but I may post one or two this week. In the meantime, apparently I have already posted an image of Miss Doris, so this is, officially, the second image of this river boat and barge. Now that the flooding has receded the boats and barges are able to use the Illinois Waterway once again. Miss Doris 3 is coming soon.
