ah, the temperature has dropped 10 degrees since our heat wave of the last two days; back to normal thank goodness. Still haven't made it downtown to take photos but I did get a few nice bike rides in during the last couple of days. Riding was one of the few ways to keep cool. I got a few new scans done too. Rode my bike over to Alki Beach for Lunch with a friend up from Tacoma today; great ride. I averaged just under 20 mph over the course of 25 miles! Tomorrow I head off with the family for a few days of camping.

It's 81 degrees in the shade here in Seattle. Too hot! Didn't make it downtown yesterday but I did get a few new scans done and also broke my "Amerikana" series into East and West of the Mississippi.

wow it's hot here in Seattle. We locals start complaining once it creaps above about 73 degress and today it was certainly over 85!!! We're not use to that big fireball in the sky. When will it ever rain? It's enough to make one nervous!

Too many family commitments to make photos this weekend but I hope to get downtown tomorrow with my Mamiya 6.

Good news about my favorite film developer. I'm not sure if it's "new old stock" or a new batch but Freestyle Photo, in L.A., has Agfa Rodinal again! I got two big bottles a week ago, plus a couple bottle of Fomapan R09 (to compare). Here's a image taken not more than 5 miles from downtown Seattle. Hard to believe but true.
