Set 4 of My
Miscellaneous Photographs
Bob Jensen at
Trinity University
This week we're between ski season and flower season up here in the White
Mountains
I decided to show you random selections from a large file of my miscellaneous
photographs
These were taken over the years by myself, my family, and my friends
The first set is some recent
photographs sent to me by son David who lives in northern California
David and is an avid hiker and mountain climber
He often hikes with his two daughters Cheyenne and Naomi
Below is a picture of Naomi and
if you look closely behind her head you will see her dog
The dog has to be carried much of the way on a long hike
Naomi graduates from high school this year (2021)
They will be visiting us in New Hampshire on Mother's Day
California is a land of great contrasts physically
and politically
Below are some very scenic springtime pictures sent to me by David
I ran across this picture taken 30+ years ago of my
colleague Don VAn Eynde in San Antonio
My wife Erika is next to him and the other folks are Erika's relatives visiting
us from Germany
This is Dixie Van Eynde and Erika at a costume party a long time ago
One mile down the road from our cottage the owners of Polly's Pancake
Parlor have a very old mare
Cannon Mountain is in the back ground along with its three "Cannon Balls" and
Mt. Kinsman in the distance
This shot was taken some years back during lupine season
Our snow melted earlier in the week (after having
nearly 10 inches of new snow the previous week)
Now the lupine plants are just beginning to stick their heads up out of the
ground
This shot was taken some years ago. It shows Erika watering the new seeds we put
into our wildflower field
This is what popped up from those seeds
I took the first photograph (zoomed) below from my desk showing the summit of Mt. Lafayette peeking out from the clouds.
Below is an unzoomed version
Mt. Lafayette above treeline is one of the more
challenging parts of the Appalachian Trail
Here's the granite path leading to the summit
Below is a shot taken later from my desk when there's just a bit of snow on the windblown summit
You can see more of my Mt. Lafayette pictures here

In October 2019 I met a couple who were planning to
build a home nearby
That home is nearly complete, and they will soon be moving from Cape Cod
Susan and David are are avid hikers and promise to send me more pictures of their adventures
Here are the three pictures they sent me recently.
This is Susan on Cooley Hill
This is near Gibb's Cabin on Bronson Hill
And the picture below was taken from Randolph Ledge
