Back to “normal”

Some things are getting back to normal, but it’s not our weather!  Still freezing, and stoking that old wood stove – in JUNE!!!

I’ve had enough.  Normally bad weather is good for photography – it’s moody, brooding. It’s got “ambiance.”  But I do need a change of scenery.

There’s a little set of islands in the middle of the South Pacific, the Pitcairn Islands, 4100 miles from Panama, and the farthest place from anywhere else in the world.  Only 50 people live there. It’s a seven-day trip via freighter from New Zealand.  The lowest temperatures ever recorded are around 10 °C, the highest 34 °C. On average, August is the coldest month (19 °C) while February is the warmest (24 °C).  Sounds like paradise to me!
