Miles To Go Before I Sleep

So a few years back, yes I did say years, Get off my back about the blog posts already I know Its been forever since my last blog post. Time goes by fast. That is until you suddenly find yourself stuck in North Carolina amidst the largest cluster f$#@ this planet has ever conjured up. You’re stuck here and you realize that since all your work has been altered, canceled or rescheduled that your actual last excuse left town along with the Covid Virus so now its time to maybe showcase some images take during a time that only Europe was the common mask adorning populace on the planet and we all just think they’re strange anyways so you dismiss the fact that they have either been hiding something for very long or just continue to be the impressive trendsetters of fashion and/or pandemic blocking facial apparel that we’ve come to know and loathe.

Be tat as it may, I present to you series of images taken from my time abroad while visiting Belgium. In these images are trips to the Leffe Brewery, Landmark sites of the world famous heroic soldiers of E Company of the 101st Airborne Division, along with the Bastogne War Museum and the surrounding landscape which imprisoned soldiers in a bloody battle for an entire winter. These are hallowed grounds and being a former paratrooper myself that is exactly how I treated them. From Leffe Beers along a majestic clear river bank to the muddy farm lands of Bastogne and then ending the trip with beers named after the most well known liberators of so many occupied citizens during the second world war, Paratroopers. Yes it isn’t lost upon most paratroopers whom are already quite left of center mentally and emotionally that making them a beer dedicated to their combat attire and rough around the edges persona that alcohol may have been sending the wrong type of appreciation. But I digress, it was a visually amazing experience as well as a humbling connection to my airborne brothers who gave everything to do the right thing for the world! Enjoy the images and any and all images are available for print through TCP. Cheers!
