Greetings from back on the East Coast. Hanging out at my parents, =
trying to recover from yet another trip cross-country (4th total, 2nd =
all at once). It's good to be off the road, I took everything, every =
last thing out of and off of the van today. Without all that junk and =
external appendages it actually is quite the nimble little vehicle. =
Just a quick update, film is at the lab getting developed, so I won't =
have any pictures for a day or two. The day after I last wrote, I moved =
out of my apartment in Missoula. That weekend I drove from Missoula to =
the Black Rock Desert in Nevada. Something like 866 miles in two days, =
with a lot of shopping along the way to get ready for Burning Man. I =
took 30 lbs. of Pancake mix to cook breakfast for the camp. I only =
ended up needing about 12, and that fed a lot of people. Burning Man =
was amazing, it was great to see my all my old friends from last year =
and plenty of new ones this year. The VWBuscamp family just keeps =
growing and getting better. I'll write more with the pictures, but as I =
was pretty sleep deprived from school, I kept it pretty low key, =
spending a lot of time in camp resting and hanging out with my friends. =
Of course low key at Burning Man is probably a week of raging partying =
out here, but it was great to relax in good company in a place with a =
fantastic energy to it. After I rolled out of there, it was pretty much =
a straight shot back here. I did stop to visit my friend Brad from =
photo school along the way (he was the skateboarding bunny in the last =
email), and all the work he is doing to get started in photography got =
me inspired. I think it was 5 days of driving, and it was pretty dull. =
So it's good to rest for a spell, but I have a pretty hefty to-do list =
that I have created for myself to get ready to move to San Francisco and =
getting ready to look for work in photography. I'm getting excited =
about what's next, it's a little scary, but mostly I don't think about =
that, just all the things I can't wait to do. I'll be hanging out here =
for a few weeks, with some visits up and down the coast planned to see =
everybody and do some photography. I'm looking forward to some Legend =
Brown Ale. I've had all the West Coast microbrews, and as a class they =
are all to themselves, but Legend Brown stacks up against any of them. =
I'll probably be in Richmond on some of the weekends coming up (starting =
with this one), so I hope to see as many people as I can. Let me know =
if you will be around and of anything going on. I can usually be found =
at the Commercial Taphouse. That's all for now, I'll send some pictures =
later this week (or early next). I hope everybody is doing well and I =
look forward to seeing y'all.
Peace
Glenn
P.S. While I'm here, I'd like to make an offer to any interested =
parties. I'd like to build up my portfolio of portrait photography, so =
if anybody is interested in getting some portraits or family portraits =
(even pet portraits) done while I'm around, I'll do it at cost (film, =
developing, printing, lighting or studio rental). I don't know yet how =
much all of that is, but my guess is that it will be more than Sears, =
and less than a regular portrait photographer. I'm interested in candid =
and creative portraiture, as well as doing some on location. I mostly =
shoot in Black and White, but can do Color if really desired. It would =
probably take a few hours for each session. I can do shots that you =
want, but in return, I may require you to A) have genuine expressions =
and/or B) have fun and act silly. If interested send me an email and =
I'll contact you later to set something up.
