Taken this past summer in Montana, in the Beartooth Mountain Range. My good friend Ryan, and, yours truly. I’m the guy in the glasses. This is the first of three Montana themed posts.

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!

Taken at Dollinger Family Farm in Channahon, IL. Fall is not complete without a trip to Dollinger’s to pick out a pumpkin, walk in and out of cool small buildings, visit the petting zoo, and, caramel apples!
Fall
windy city
Don’t know the name of this building, but this is another good example of why I think the windy city is very photogenic.
cold rose
Fall and Winter are my favorite seasons, and October is quickly making room for the coming cold of November and beyond. This was taken just outside my front door. Happy Fall and Winter everyone!
let go the summer days
the buzzing evening songs
and the corn so high
and proud
just embrace crispy leaves
the cedar scented sweater
it’s raining yellow
orange and red
dear cold rose
rest beneath
a wintry blanket
the dark cold days
just a bridge
to that wondrous
moment
then Spring

One more post (at least for now!) of the little champ.
grandson
young and bold
such a beautiful boy
discovering the world
wide eyed delight
a car!

running on the sidewalk
giggles that can
make the world laugh
hugs that can make
papa cry
so much joy
promise
and hope
God bless you
my Soren

walking through color
Spent a couple of days this past week hiking around Devil’s Lake, WI, with my colleagues at Minooka Bible Church. We enjoyed the beauty of autumn colors, did some dreaming and planning for our ministry year, and had lots of fun! This was taken with my iPad.
Jay Pritzker Pavilion
The Jay Pritzker Pavillion is a fascinating member of the cast of structures and features at beautiful Millennium Park in Chicago. It is a stunning, modern, captivating band shell that adds to the dynamic life and attraction of this amazing park.

Our youngest son is a freshman in high school and participates in the marching band. High School football games in our small town are big events! Rivalries, pride, marching band, cheerleaders, poms, Arrowettes, popcorn, and, lots of cheering fans make for a fun community experience! Go Indians!
