My sojourn through the undiscovered south (undiscovered for me) is over, and I’m back in what I have to admit is a winter fairyland. Or was until yesterday afternoon, when it switched up into the standard Michigonian Inter-season Slushyland. I’m excited about the new term etc etc.

Hopefully I’ll write up some text on my trip, but here’s the short version:

New Orleans — very good.
Central Hill Country of Texas/Austin — very good.
Joshua Tree Park in California — very good.

You should go theres.

Most of my photos are still sitting on a laptop in LA or possibly Mexico, but that’s okay because I didn’t take very many good ones. Not because there weren’t good photos to take — Nola is probably ridiculously photogenic if I had got off my photographic ass and tried, I’m just either out of the habit or lost what meager skill I had. I’m voting for a blend of the two. And as for Enchanted Rocks and Joshua Tree, well, duh. Okay, I’ve lost my meager skill.
