    Re: Greetings from Yosemite

    Nice! I hung out here for a few days after that with no hot water or power. Let's just say that bags of snow in my freezer didn't melt, since it was about 35 in my house the whole time. I'm told it was built at Ansel's request as a summer cabin, so it's a little chilly in the cold months!

    My friend Glenn lived in those "cabins" for over 20 years, visiting him in the winters was great -- one just has to dress warmly! (and photograph quick as the days were short -- and made shorter by the Valley walls!LOL!)

    Enjoy your time there!

    Mike,

    Me and a couple other brain dead old farts from this forum will be up there a week from Wednesday. If we stop by the gallery, as we often do, we'll drop in and say hi. And if you happen to see 3 guys with funny looking cameras on top of their tripods, that will be us.
    good luck putting your LF gear together and have fun with it all!

    Lon,

    I am proud of my current BDOF status. I have two remaining brain cells. One is showing smoke, so I have to be really careful how I use the good one. :-)

    I'm looking forward to being in The Valley!

    I'll be there that day so stop by and say hello!

    At this point I'm trying to figure out my field of view at all my spots, and a 210 is looking more up my alley, but I want to get some film first. The camera came with a fuji quickload holder but I want some black and white action too, so maybe some provia 100f quickloads and then some T-Max. So much research...

    "So much research..."

    --In one of the most beautiful laboratories on the planet! I'm envious.

    We'll definitely stop by, Mike.
