Welcome to the online blog for traveler/writer/photographer Steven Barber. Come in. Relax. Take off your shoes and socks -- or any other article of clothing, this is the internet. Have a look around. I hope to intrigue, amuse, entertain, and maybe provoke you just a little. I love to find adventure. All I need is a change of clothes, my Nikon, an open mind and a strong cup of coffee.

SANTA ROSA, CA - CRY OF THE SARUS CRANE



Another October Country destination.

Too many horror movies these days center around young adults at camp.

Perhaps the writers are simply reliving their own horrible Summer seasons away from family, listening to things that went bump in the night.


In this case, however, the encampment is of a permanent and much more enjoyable time: wine country's SAFARI WEST park, near Santa Rosa. Here it's not the boogeyman who will get you, it's the wild animals in natural settings just a handful of feet away.

Nothing predatory can get to you, but the unearthly cry of a Sarus Crane (a slender five foot tall bird) at 2 o'clock in the morning will certainly bring you to your feet.
