Eagerly Awaited

I have been pacing the apartment waiting to receive my latest camera, it looks like it may arrive today. I have been reluctant to venture into medium format film like 120 due to the rarity of developing. I have been using a Holga 135 for several months and have been getting better at it. I am used to my canon whose viewfinder focuses through the actual lens. The Holgas force you to judge the distance without that advantage.
When I saw a special online for one less than $20, I gave in to temptation. It has been a week since I ordered, but it feels like forever. I went to a local store and purchased 3 rolls of film to try. Tomorrow is a BBQ party in Waialua. Cross my fingers the weather is bright and sunny. I will probably not be able to post any of the pictures due to the cost of the scanning at the local developers.

One of the things I want when the fit hits the shan

This thing is awesome! I bet that if any of those apocalypse stories comes true, the owner will drive away no problem. Probably has power nothing. Just fuel and go. I would love one of these on my family farm.

Reminiscing

Sometimes your brain goes back over the past and you remember some of the oddest things. Today I thought of Dungeons and Dragons. Yes, laugh. But it was the camaraderie of a few people trying to accomplish something together. It was a lot of laughing and joking too. We may not have been the jocks or debonaire, but it made our lives a little more bearable when spending it with like minded individuals. Sometimes I want to play again, but circumstances have changed and I am at the age where I will attract far more stigma than a geeky teenager, but it is fun to remember and imagine.

650cc Cafe Racer

Took my motorcycle into the shop for routine maintenance and saw this 650cc Cafe Racer outside awaiting parts. Kawasaki maybe?

The handlebars are one of my favorite parts. Like to meet the owner for a beer and find the story behind this bike.

Iron Head

Caught this Iron Head in the Costco parking lot. Like the paint scheme. Good stuff.

T2 Volkswagen

Saw this at Ala Moana Beach Park. I keep thinking about how I want one.

Ford Ranchero

Saw this last week. Thought it was a sweet ride.
