I shot almost all my photos on film, so I'll have to see if they turned out okay in a week or two after they get developed.
Until then, here's a photo of my recovering from a cold SO, exhausted after a grueling 4.5 hour drive, sleeping for 6 hours in a tent, and hiking for 2.5 hours.

Finally back after a 4 hour scooter drive from Smangus. Man, that place is so remote.
It also got hit really really hard by the typhoon rain I think. So many really old trees were completely washed out. This clearing used to be forested from what I remember. The oldest ones are still there though.

Magaw sausage and millet donut is the lunch of champions before a pretty grueling stretch of road before Smangus.

Anyway, it's time for bed, y'all. Gonna wake up early, catch some baseball, then drive 4 hours into the mountains and camp at the most remote indigenous community in Taiwan to see a 2500 year old tree and its friends.

I should be in bed already, but I'm debating over whether I should bring #Kodak #500T or #HarmonPhoenixII200 with me on a camping trip to Smangus tomorrow.

As I was typing this, I remembered that I'm going to also be lightsheeting for moths, and I want that 500T.

Omg. Kerkering absolutely had a brain spasm. That's the dumbest way to lose a game I've ever seen in a playoff game. That's gonna haunt him forever.

Yeah I took this pic earlier in the game thinking that they looked like those new Meta Ray-Ban glasses lol. They're so thick.

Kershaw just keeps coming out to a new horror every postseason. He loves spooky season.

Might be a bit late, but if you can get Xofluza, it'll stop the flu in its tracks. That stuff rules and it's a single dose. 24 hours and my partner was like at 85% better. It stopped me from getting full on flu when I took it.
Feel better!

Heading up to Smangus this weekend. I went once back in 2017.

I'm stoked to go again because I've got: -a new (to me) Zuiko f3.5 macro lens for my Olympus

-a brand new tent that is a 3p palace for 2p

-AND I'm gonna get to wear pants and a jacket. (can summer go away please?)
