I am alway looking for escapes from Texas in the summer. What better than to get to visually interpret a once in a lifetime Arctic summit in Svalbard being put on by National Geographic, Lindblad Expeditions and the Aspen Institue. We are leaving tomorrow- I will let you know how it goes.

I just went in and cleaned out all the old news items on the site. I think they were slowing it down I want it fast so you can see more. This was shot at Union Station in LA. I have always loved the comings and goings of train stations.

Cool little hotel that has just opened in Plano, Texas of all places. Check it out, its called NYLO. Beautiful people.

Talk about Space age, this is the Museum of Contemporary Art in Rio de Janerio that Oscar Neimeyer designed. It is awesome looking. We had three hours off in seven days and we chose to go check this place out. Stay turned for more images of Rio to follow.
