Sometimes I wonder if I should reach out to people from high school and college. Catch up, see how they're doing, see where their lives have taken them... Then I have a feeling they'll think I'm some weirdo since it's been 20ish years. Then an old neighbor adds me on FB so maybe I'm overthinking?

Most of the pines around here are almost perfectly straight, and then there's this one keeping things fun

A while ago I bought some factory reject 110 film from #lomography. Half the rolls jammed, and most weren't even labelled. I've taken to rerolling them and developing them in #caffenol which seems to work.

Sometimes doing things wrong works out well. I'm shocked at how fine the grain is.

This dumb little doodle near Hungry Hurse Dam in MT me think "Matty" for some reason. You're where my brain goes whenever I think "mouse" for some reason. Just take a lil time and you'll be doing your thing soon enough.

Yes, usually right in the middle of the damn trail.

These are by FAR the biggest #huckleberries I've seen. The patch went for a mile or so.

Turns out my #beastmode is acting like a grizzly and gorging myself on the trail
