Marty’s photo of the day #4651: This photo, from late October 2020, brings back a lot of memories for me. The COVID-19 pandemic was still in the Trumpy stage, and I got booked to present my show, “Around the World in 90 Minutes,” at Eastern Arizona College. Most of my other college gigs had been […]

In glorious bloom
Marty’s photo of the day #4161: I shot this photo several years ago in the Sonoran desert. I was on a college speaking tour that took me to far western Arizona and used an off-day to explore the desert, in full, glorious bloom.
Arizona scenic
Marty’s photo of the day #4004: I haven’t posted a scenic photo for a while. Here’s one I took a few years ago, while on a college speaking tour in Arizona. I was driving between gigs, when a snowstorm hit. I had some time, so I parked the car and went hiking for a while.
Desert in bloom
Marty’s photo of the day #3801: Here’s a shot from several years ago, when I had a break between college speaking tours in Arizona and California: the Sonoran Desert in bloom.
One more before moving on
Marty’s photo of the day #3412: I don’t remember if I made this photo in northern Arizona or southern Utah, but it’s one final scenic shot from my “Don’t Get COVID-19 and Die Tour” before I move on to another subject.
On the road again!
Marty’s photo of the day #3410: Today is day #6 of my 2,600-mile “Don’t Get COVID-19 and Die Tour.” The snowstorm has passed, and now I’m going to attempt to make it the last 150 miles (from Dillon, MT to Victor, MT). Well, actually, that’s now 225 miles, because I checked the webcam at the […]
Sedona scenic
Marty’s photo of the day #3367: During a college tour a few years ago, I ended up driving through Sedona, Arizona when a snowstorm hit. The contrast of the white on the red rocks made the already scenic area even more scenic.
Snowy Sedona
Marty’s photo of the day #2858: Several years ago I was on a college speaking tour that routed me through New Mexico and Arizona. I loved that tour! This photo is from a snowing morning, when I made a stop in Sedona between college shows in Arizona.
Desert in bloom
Marty’s photo of the day #2547: Five years ago, I was on a speaking tour that took me to the Arizona-California border. During an off-day between gigs, I explored the Mojave National Preserve. The desert was in bloom—a stunning sight! This is a yucca plant.
After hundreds of shows, the most memorable are . . .
Marty’s photo of the day #2546: I’m posting late today because, oh joy, I’ve been on airplanes since early this morning, flying from Philadelphia to Missoula. Yesterday’s show at Rowan College at Gloucester County was my last for this school year. Next year will be my twelfth of speaking at colleges. When you’ve performed hundreds […]
Pronghorns
Marty’s photo of the day #2453: I think pronghorns are such beautiful animals. I photographed these two in Arizona, but they wouldn’t look out of place in the African bush.
Cactus flower
Marty’s photo of the day #2354: I photographed this cactus flower in 2013, when I was on a college speaking tour in Arizona. I had completely forgotten about it, until now.
