Photo Essays of our Global Adventures

This collection of adventures is my Internet laboratory. While I was living in Charleston, I tracked the building of the Ravenel Bridge and then the unbuilding of the Grace and Pearman Bridges. Here, I'm just building short photo-essays to share our Asian adventures.

Why build a laboratory? Passing through primary and secondary education years dulled my childish curiosity. Years later, I rediscovered my childish curiosity. I think that if I can re-ignite curiosity of others, then perhaps it is a step toward restoring the joy and fun of learning for all. Building web pages that capture your imagination is a first step in learning how to restore curiosity.

Trying to remember infrequently used concepts and ideas removes some of the day's fun. Uncle Google and Internet accessible resources help me avoid the forgetting process by connecting me with web pages that address what I forgot. Since there is no established methodology for making learning fun while avoiding the forgetting process, I decided to try my hand using different web page strategies. This site is a work in progress. Here is a list of all photo_essays. If you are curious, click on one of the episode thumbnail photos below or visit our adventures in and around Singapore via an experiment with Google Map displays of our adventures (large scale). On a smaller scale you can visit, via satellite imagery, our home, church, GMS, GMS, Silat and the relocated Chinatown Food Court (where I work and eat) and my insect observatory
