Chasing Rachel McKinnie's Secret Utah

What happens when you try to shoot the way somebody else sees? Can you ever really capture how somebody else feels? Or am I doomed always to a sort of autistic interpretation of somebody else's thoughts, where I know what I wish to say and articulate it beautifully on my tongue but cannot hear the sense in my syllables or the syntax in my heart?

From Barcelona to the Basques

What has happened to Spain? Where did it go? Five crucial teenage years were spent here, but the country is no longer what I remember. Now I have to work hard to avoid the tourists and the Euro babel. Where is Iberia? A fourth trip around the pyrenees in five years brings a few new wrinkles to my favorite place.
