ls -h doesn't show hidden files, it shows the files sizes in "h"uman readable format.

Do an ls -a to show "a"ll the files, including the hidden ones.

Also I think you might need to add a trailing / to your destination directory to get it to work correctly.

forgot to mention that when I'm copying from original to destination w/o rsync i am asked if I want to skip or replace an existing file even though the file is not visible. I attempted to do an ls -h but the file is not hidden.

When I run rsync one file (a directory) will not sync and the files in that file. I was wondering why. I thought that maybe if the file was in there to start that would fix it and it does so if only temporarily. Upon the next run of rsync the directory in question is deleted.
the command that is run:

$ rsync -aWuq --delete-before /home/bmike1/Documents /media/bmike1/RedSanDisk
