This is a simple camping stove I built a few years ago. I used it during the Na Pali Coast Hike when I was in Kauai. The stove works very simply and very effectively. Capfuls of denatured alcohol are poured onto the top of the stove and allowed to drain in. Once full, a few […]

I was experimenting with prolonged exposure photography at the campfire the other night and I got a few interesting shots. This image was shot with my Canon T2I Eos Rebel; ISO 100, 18mm, f/14, 30″, RAW image format. With a tripod I pointed the camera in a direction with little eminating light, I reached into […]

Mussels are likely the most widely available and reliable molluscs found on the California coast. If you think you might enjoy fresh mussels at almost no cost and you’re not already picking them this article might be for you.
