  • A Look Behind the Camera Held by WyoJones 🙂

    If you’ve been clicking through to my blog because of the photos, did you ever wonder who is this WyoJones character? Since I’m almost halfway through the NaBloPoMo blogging challenge at BlogHer, I thought this would be a good time to introduce visitors to the the two people who help me (and my blog) look…

  • Ancient Alien Visit? You Be the Judge!

    Pausing this “Taking the Scenic Route” post to wish my dad a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Okay, now back to business: our Scenic route this week takes us through Legends Rock State Petroglyphs Site in Wyoming. The hubs was there in 2011 and has this to say about his visit: “Legend Rock State Petroglyph Site, Hot Spring…

  • Taking the Scenic Route: Yellowstone Park

    Lodgepole Twilight It’s not as easy to see Yellowstone National Park during the winter. And since it IS winter, thought I’d share with winter shot with all of my peeps.

I grew up in Wyoming, not…

This Lady and her sister had posed for a few photographs in their Victorian dresses and hat. They asked that I capture the back of the dresses…

  • Pauline Baird Jones’ Scenic Route: Swamp Thing

    I grew up in Northern Wyoming, about as far from swamps as you can get. I’d probably never have seen a swamp, or this swamp thing, if it weren’t for taking the scenic route with the hubs. I also found the Cypress stumps both fascinating and creative-juices-stirring (like squat gnomes or something. I’m amazed I…

  • Pauline Baird Jones: Geologic Time?

    I had reason recently to mull on that mysterious thing called time. My mulling followed on a short exchange I had with the hubs. Hubs: I’m not going to make it in time. Me: If you’d quit using rocks, instead of clocks, to mark time, you’d be on time. I get a “look.” And the…
