\u00a0I imagine we all have times we miss some good fellowship! \u00a0I think that is one of the reasons I&#8217;m so looking forward to running workshops in retirement and next week!! \u00a0I love photography and being in beautiful places in great conditions, but honestly I love standing around with great friends and enjoying the moment even more. \u00a0In the 11 years I ran the Great American Photography Weekends I was on the road over 200 days a year, drove over \u00a070,000 miles a year, and was in every major National Park at least 25 times! \u00a0I don&#8217;t really need to see the parks again, but I love a new crop of great people to share them with. \u00a0It is a real thrill to see others see these magical places for the first time, it brings back all the joy for me too!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>His Light was never about going to incredible places again for me, it was about seeing Jim enjoy his first visit to my special places, and sharing that joy with our Guests. \u00a0It is a business, and we do make some profit, but Jim and I see it much more as a ministry, and opportunity to share His love with those that join us in the field. \u00a0I am really excited about seeing everyone in Spokane Saturday afternoon, and I know these locations are going to blow them away! \u00a0You never know what the weather will be, or the conditions, but I do know one thing for sure, when Jim, Matt, and I and the His Light team walk into the room, they will see some friendly faces!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Blessings,<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>the pilgrim<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Image: \u00a0Shot along the road just outside of Mount Rainier!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever find yourself just looking for \u00a0friendly face?
