I'm more or less packed for my trip to San Francisco tomorrow. I'm feeling much better, though I remain fairly congested and don't have much of a voice (though why I'm not sure). I'm bringing three cameras. Which is ridiculous. (For those dying to know, my Nikon N80, my holga and my polaroid spectra.) I just got a new lens for my Nikon - it's a Nikor 28-80mm - so now I can zoom in a bit and go a little wide. I'm excited to test it out.
Speaking of getting ready, my parents and I started getting ready for our Burns' Night Supper next weekend, in honor of the esteemed Scottish poet, whose birthday is next Friday. Mom found her box of decorations, some errant whisky stashed some odd place and Dad's tam o'shanter. I figured some polaroids were in order. Enjoy and have a great weekend! Thanks again for the health well-wishes!
claire, have such an amazing time! i am selfishly glad you are going with all of your cameras because i know that you will come back with some amazing photos. can't wait to see 'em! megxx

Claire,
Have a great time with Hasia! I love that picture of Dad, he looks so proud to be wearing such an awesome hat! Sometime I should check out that party of theirs, it sounds interesting.
Love,
Alix

Have fun, Claire! And again, the Burns' Night Supper sounds awesome.

I totally laughed out loud looking at these pictures. Of the three, I would be hard pressed to identify the one of the "wee dram."
I'M SO EXCITED FOR THIS PARTY.
