Welcome to Breakfast in America
I’m a Brit who unexpectedly emigrated to the USA in 2008, and this is my photo journal.
It’s an eclectic mix of things; there’s no guiding theme or topic. It is whatever catches my attention, what I’ve been thinking, doing, or piques my interest. Currently that’s mainly backpacking and clearing some of the backlog on my ‘honey-do’ list.

When I’m out backpacking, I can rely on the Gaia GPS App to provide me with accurate information on where I take my pictures. When driving Google Maps (which, incidentally, only works on a cell phone now), you can only find out where you have been if Google thinks it is ‘Interesting’ enough — or, more likely, there could be some profit.
I spent quite a while trying to determine where I took this and the following two pictures. But no luck. It was somewhere on the Cherohala Skyway.
