Real With a Touch of Grain Blog Circle ~ Cold Edition~

Here we are, back again with our monthly film blog circle. The theme for the month was “cold” which, if I was being graded on my ability to stay on topic, would have received a D-. The window to shoot and send off for development happened to be when we were on vacation in SoCal where a “cold” day may dip wayyyy down into the 60s. When my film came back, there was a surprise roll I had completely forgotten about that “sort of” had to do with cold. Eating ice cream is the same as shooting real icicles dripping from snow drenched barns right?? Of course it is! It better be because that’s all I got this post having to do with cold. It’s a stretch but here goes…

Don’t go getting in a tizzy…these tracks aren’t live.Because every kid eats the bottom of their ice cream and then puts it upside down on the table like a paperweight right?!?!Ice cream + balloon = satisfied kid.Don’t worry…she’s saving a little for later to lick off in the car. True story.I love this guy. He plays a lot of classic rock.A few from vacay.
