A Cold and Windy Day

Several things were planned for today, including bike riding which did not happen. We did get our showers at the campgound shower house and it was very nice except there was no soap shelf in the shower. At 11 am, Jill had her scheduled zoom call with her Oncologist. And then it was time to move to a different site. We are now down in the hole, but Starlink still has a strong signal. Unplanned, but still needed was grocery shopping and clothes washing in the afternoon. On the way back to camp, we stopped for dinner at the world famous Betty's Pie Shop. It was OK, but not spectacular. Arriving back at camp we quickly unloaded the clothes and groceries and Les loaded up the large format camera and headed off to try an get the greatest sunset photo of the lighthouse. He set up the camera on the rocks to the west of the lighthouse and shot a few different angles. Deciding on the composition, it was time to wait. The clouds in the scene were moving through nicely, but the clouds behind him were intermittently blocking the sun. There were also some light sprinkles, but not enough to deter him. Approaching sunset, he got a couple of shots similar to what he wanted, but when it came time for the great shot of the lighthouse in great light and everything else shadowed, the sun had been completely blocked by the clouds. Some days just go like that. We will have to see what turns out when I develop the film when I get home.Read more
