So - Where am I?? Seems to be the question on a few people's minds as of late. I'm in Willits CA making my way back north to Vancouver. I'll be arriving back to Lotus Land on the second making stops in Arcata, Ashland, Agness, Eugene, Ozzette and Orcas Island. Internet is limited at best at some of these stops, most of the access is Wi-Fi and I am without a laptop, oh well. It's a bit tricky finding an actual desktop computer anywhere these days.

I've been focusing on my film photography, neglecting the digital but I'll send a few more images in the future if I'm able to upload them. The pace has quickened with a self imposed deadline looming, leaving little time for pleasure. Thankfully, each and every day is full of interactions with people who are inspiring, generous and encouraging. This is my pleasure.

I've managed to sleep in the hills and swim in the creeks and I've become accustomed to waking with the chickens poking their heads into my sleeping bag. I've spent a lot of time in the gardens of my hosts, sharing space with all sorts of foul. Tomorrow I'll be in Arcata - soaking in the Finnish Hot tubs, sipping espresso in the grotto amongst the ferns. I'm sure I'll be able to supply a few pix to keep everyone happy !!
