"Always remember that every obstacle is a test and an opportunity." Dr. Wayne W. Dyer
Where would we be today if our forefathers had looked at the mountains as they were heading West, and decided that they were too tall, that there was absolutely no way around them, and just given up? Or, what if Columbus had decided that the seas to the New World were too rough and just given up? Sometimes things in life just aren't that easy. That doesn't mean, however, that they're not worth working for or worth fighting for, and that we should just crawl back into our little shells and give up. If you really want something badly enough, or think something is important enough, just do whatever it takes to get it done. That's how changes are made, countries discovered and new things invented. It just takes perseverance, time and courage. So, next time you encounter an obstacle that you think you can't overcome, figure out what you need to do to accomplish your goal and just do it.
If you enjoy reading quotes, thoughts or photo tips & looking at pictures, you've come to the right place. I may not post every day, but I will post frequently & I'll be posting a lot of pictures and information from Yellowstone. Be sure to check in often & leave some comments for me. It makes blogging a LOT more fun! Enjoy!

Glacier Reflections
I recently licensed this photo from a RM site that I submit to. Wish I knew what publication it was going to be in, but I guess that's the life of a stock photographer. LOL! By the way, if you see this picture somewhere, please let me know. I'd love to know wherre it's going to be used. In the meantime, though, I'll just enjoy the check. LOL!

Foggy Morning in Yellowstone
"To me every hour of the light and dark is a miracle. Every cubic inch of space is a miracle." Walt Whitman (1819-1892), USA
As you have probably figured out by now, I love fog pictures, especially when the fog is above a river. To me, it creates a magical scene which transcends me to a peaceful place, a place where I can relax and be one with nature. I hope this image gives you a peaceful feeling and adds joy to your day.

Enjoy Nature
"The best remedy for those who are afraid, alone or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature." Anne Frank (1929-1945) Netherlands
