I haven't photographed since returning to town much given that I've spent pretty much all of my free time scanning film.  It can be laborious. I have a roll of film in my Yashica with a couple pictures of Medford but those will have to wait. If I get them in a reasonable amount of time I may post them later. 

With the jeep out of commission I found myself sitting on the bus headed towards work. Those of you who know me will know I am not adept at using public transportation so when it came time to transfer buses I opted to get off and walk the rest of the way. This is what I found.

The moment I got out of the car I saw 1970s VW Beetle cruising down the road. I bumbled my camera but I'm pretty sure I got it. Even though I was relatively confident I decided to stick around for a while and try and get some more with both my 6d and my AE-1 just because whenever I shoot film there's always a bit of doubt. Unfortunately when I was unloading the film I discovered I had failed to load it properly so we'll never know. Fortunately I still have these.

If anyone owns a VW Beetle or other interesting car and wants to take a trip to the coast I'd love to shoot it a bit.

I had the day off so I grabbed my camera and hopped in my car. I didn't really have any plan but I ended up taking 36 out to Florence. I've never been that way before and it was really a pleasant drive. Lots of rural communities along the way that seem to have gotten left behind as the rest of the world progressed forward. I'll definitely be making more trips that direction.

"Proleptic decay and decrepitude"

I find myself perpetually interested by the way things fall apart, by how people decide things our no longer worth maintaining but also not worth doing away with. They sit, rot, fall victim to vandals and vines. Paint fades and rubber cracks while moss grows and wood begins to mold. Is this the dying American dream the President speaks of? Is this the end of the American experiment?
