    Well, I don't see very many film holders so hope you have a box or two off film hiding someplace there.

    Have fun on your trip, I have a home near Flagstaff and some times go there via DV, definitely some great places to photograph. Very good time of year for DV unless you like the heat.

    Typical Canadian, takes drugs from Canada to sell in California to make extra cash. Richard I think you're supposed to buy the drugs down there and bring them back to Canada to sell.... that's were the money is. You're running your drug dealing business the same way I run my retail business... backwards.

    Have a great trip... really I should be going with you.... but my wife wants to go to southern Manitoba next week. I think it should be warm there, no.

    Have fun, and take it easy on the Whole Plate camera in case I get to buy it off you one day.

    But the good Cuban cigars must be purchased in Canada.

    LOL I haven't done that since the 60s/70s! But no, I'd be afraid of breaking it. Also my younger son tells me that weed is at least 6 times stronger now than in our sissy days so I don't think so anyway, but I AM bringing a bottle of 25-year-old Glen Morangie...

    I have 6 holders for each format and am bringing 3 boxes of film for each as well as 10 sheets of colour WP. Should be enough I hope.

    Now those I could bring but after hearing about the mom who got detained at the border because she had a Kinder Surprise that she was bringing across, I dunno...(true!!)

    If you're partial to the grand scenic landscape like I am, then I recommend you visit Dante's View:



    Shot in the late afternoon on Fuju Provia 100F on a cold winters day. It's about a half-mile hike from the car to this view looking north.

    Have fun,

    Thomas

    Beautiful shot, Thomas. THAT is why I am bringing some colour film!! BUT, currently anyway, the road to Dante's View is closed due to ice and snoo...
