And some pictures speak for themselves. Like this one:

Facebook reminds me that one year ago I woke up to this view for the very first time:

Kevin Kim and I took a photo of the same moon on Monday. His view was from Korea, mine on Baloy Beach.

We are both using variations of the Samsung Galaxy phone camera. I think nighttime photos appear blurry in part because it is hard to hold the phone steady long enough to get the full exposure required in limited light. Anyway, I still like both photos.

The women I’ve known I wouldn’t let tie my shoe
They wouldn’t give you the time of day
But the slit eyed lady knocked me off my feet
God I was glad I found her
And if they had the words I could tell to you
to help you on the way down the road
I couldn’t quote you no Dickens, Shelley or Keats
’cause it’s all been said before
Make the best out of the bad just laugh it off
You didn’t have to come here anyway
So remember, every picture tells a story don’t it

UPDATE: Well, so much for being original. This is the FIFTH time I’ve used “every picture tells a story” as a post title.

The first time in May 2010 I was lamenting a camera malfunction that erased all the photos I took on a trip to South Carolina.

Then in August 2010 I couldn’t resist mocking the President with this photo:

In September 2012 I wrote about my life in Prescott, Arizona including this Google image of the first house I ever bought.

And finally, in August 2014 I shared some photos from my darting life in Korea. Everything changes.
