Cabin at the Cronan Ranch Regional Trails Park, Pilot Hill, California.
During our hike at the Cronan Ranch Regional Trails Park on New Year’s Day, we stumbled upon this picturesque little cabin.
Come to find out, it was part of a movie set, which was used in Michael Landon Jr.’s 2003 movie “Love Comes Softly!”
I have more photos of this movie set coming soon!

Donna & Maya Bussinger hiking at Cronan Ranch Regional Trails Park, Pilot Hill, California.
A hike on one of the newest trail systems in our area was the perfect way to spend New Year’s Day!
Jeff & I have known about this park for a couple of years or so (opened in 2005), but we hadn’t checked it out until this week. We spent the afternoon hiking with our friend Donna and daughter Maya, at highly recommended Cronan Ranch Regional Trails Park. If you are looking for a great place to hike, run, mountain bike and horseback ride (to name just a few) in the Sierra Foothill’s, this is the place! [click to continue…]

Fallen Leaf Lake (foreground) and Lake Tahoe, California, taken from the Mount Tallac Trail.
After leaving Blue Lake, we drove south on 395 and headed for Fallen Leaf Campground, in South Lake Tahoe.
Some of our friends joined us there for the last leg of our road trip. While we were there, we hiked the spectacular Mount Tallac Trail.
This photo was taken during our hike. There are so many photos of Lake Tahoe that all look pretty much the same. I wanted to capture a more unique shot of this very popular subject.
Here is another post I wrote about our visit to Lake Tahoe.

McArthur-Burney Falls taken from the observation deck at the top.
This is the view you get when you don’t take the hike down to the base of the falls. In some ways, I think this view is more impressive. You get to see the falls in their entirety. That said, I also highly recommend taking the hike, so you can see it from many different perspectives. This is especially important if you are a photographer. [click to continue…]

Close up view of McArthur-Burney Falls, California
This is definitely one of the most unique shots of the falls I got and one I’ve never seen before.
I had to climb over very slippery rocks and get sprayed by the mist coming off of the falls to get this shot, but it was worth it.
More to come…

McArthur-Burney Falls, McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park, California
People travel from all over the country to see spectacular McArthur-Burney Falls in Shasta County. But, most of them photograph it from the observation deck at the top.
My goal when we traveled there recently was to capture the falls from many different perspectives. That meant hiking down the fairly short but steep trail to the base of the falls. I was amazed at how different the falls looked once I got to the bottom. I was also amazed at how challenging it was to photograph!
This photo is one of my favorites from the series I shot. Here is another one of my favorites, that I posted during our Northeastern California Road Trip. I will post more photos of it later this week, along with a few tips for a successful photo shoot.

Baby Boomer Sherri Meyer viewing the spillway at Lake Clementine, Auburn, California (taken by Jeff Meyer).
A few days ago, I was reading Richard Wong’s Photo Blog. He had put together an awesome slideshow, showcasing a selection of his travel images from his PhotoShelter Archive.
I thought that was such a brilliant idea, I decided to create my own slideshow, showcasing some of my favorite “Baby Boomer” images from MY PhotoShelter Archive.

View of Fallen Leaf Lake and Lake Tahoe, from the Mt. Tallac Trail, South Lake Tahoe, California
Our final destination during our road trip was Fallen Leaf Lake Campground, in South Lake Tahoe, California. We live less than 2 hours away from the most popular lake in the country (also known as “Lake in the sky”), but we usually avoid it because of the crowds.

Jeff and Blue Thunder climbing out of Little Gold Valley, near Gold Lake, Sierra County, California.
Of all the off-road adventures we have taken in Blue Thunder, climbing the hill in this photo left the biggest impact. [click to continue…]
Silhouette of a couple canoeing on Blue Lake, Tahoe National Forest, California
There are several Blue Lakes in California. But, the one in the photo above has been a favorite of ours for many years. In fact, we have kept it a “secret” up until now. I won’t tell exactly how to get there, other than it’s the Blue Lake near Lake Spaulding, in the Tahoe National Forest.
