Words and Light

Today, Jeff and I are embarking on another westward spring break road trip.

Whereas last year, Esten, Jeff and I planned and completed an ambitious road trip that clocked more than 4,000 miles, went through eight states and included four national parks, Jeff and I are keeping things relatively simple this year.

We’re going to Santa Fe. And that’s about it.

The only other time I've been to Santa Fe, it was a daytrip in 2007. We visited the Georgia O'Keeffe museum and, afterward, were inspired to switch our cameras to shoot in black-and-white. Silly, but fun.

Actually, our itinerary also includes stops in Philmont Scout Ranch (my beloved home for five summers), Taos, Chimayo and, on the way back, Amarillo. I’d tell you more, but you’ll find out later anyway.

Something else that makes this year’s trip different from last: I’m shooting in entirely film. No digital for me, although I’m bringing a memory card just in case I want to swipe Jeff’s gear. But my shooting (almost) entirely in film means that my editing and blogging Days XXI through XXVII of the new 30-day challenge will be delayed.

Que será será.

I’ll be back in a week! Take care, everyone!
