Once more into the breach!!
Good morning all,
So it's dawned a lovely morning here in the Ottawa Valley. The weather was a bit frightening earlier with thunder and lightning storms moving thru'. It's cleared up a bit since then and promises to be a bright day at least, if not with actual direct sunlight. I perked up a pot of coffee first thing and sat back in the quiet of the morning and listened to the birds sing and the left-over rain drop off the eave of the house while I contemplated what to do next. - HA! what else? I boarded up my bathroom (darkroom), retrieved my box of film from the beer fridge in the basement, carefully restocking the beer while I was there (Note to self : buy more beer), and then proceeded to load two more negatives in to my one and only film holder. (I'm a charter member of the cheapskates club, so I only have one). I have read and thought carefully about all the good suggestions and comments that I have received both here and in private email, so I followed the advice given both about the loading and about checking the loads - all seems ok. I think a morning drive is on the agenda - me and my sweetheart with a coffee and doughnut - out on a tour of the valley backroads - maybe a stop for frenchfries for lunch - and see if there are any photo-op's that strike our fancy. cheers for now :-) -- regards from :: John Bartley 43 Norway Spruce Street Stittsville, Ontario Canada, K2S1P5 ( If you slow down it takes longer - does that apply to life also?) |
