From national parks and desert landscapes to tropical islands and robust cities, our empty nest adventures are taking us to some of the most amazing places and there is still so much more to explore! Enjoy some of my favorite images from places we've had the opportunity to visit.

A close view centers on a weathered vintage car's tall grille and faded blue bodywork. The layered color and worn finish make this old front end a pleasure to explore, with new traces of its past appearing as your eye moves across it. Rust-red and brown patches spread over the surrounding panels, while blue paint still follows the upper edge of the grille and curves across the panel beside it. Long, narrow vertical bars create a strong rhythm against the uneven surface, and a small central badge gives the grille a focal point. You can linger over the contrast between the blue remnants and the rough, mottled metal, then notice how each mark changes the character of the car. The blurred background keeps attention on the textured front, where age leaves color and character side by side.
