Today after the monthly pancake breakfast at the Veteran’s Memorial, Lori and I changed our plans because it was t-shirt weather in Ferndale. We spent the morning and early afternoon working in the garden, and then since Williams Creek has …
Lori and I drove out to Cottonwood to pick up this 1917 Florence parlor stove. Cottonwood is just south of Redding, so it was a 3.5 hour drive each way. We weren’t sure if we were even going to be …
I took this picture a couple of weeks ago, but I just got the film back. Yes, I actually shot some real film recently. It had been so long since I had used my FM2’s that I kind of forgot …
