Under the Trees

Lonely Road

I bought an Olympus Trip 35 film camera from The Trip Man in England, custom-covered with jolly red leather, and refurbished. This is from the first roll of film – admittedly, with a bit of post-processing – Ektar 100, which I love for outdoors.

Anyway, this gal was on her mountain bike, panting and sweating, on a road in the middle of nowhere. I was in the middle of nowhere, too, but I got there rather more sedately on my two feet. Imagine – two people in nowhere.

Yesterday it rained. Tomorrow it will rain. Today, maybe it will rain.

Here, in the drought, a tropical summer thunderstorm is something that I have never seen in SoCal. It will be interesting to see how this affects the dryness all around. As well, having an air humidity above 0% makes for crankiness and stickiness – not something I am used to in the summertime anymore!
