Bloganuary 2022 – Day 20

What is your favorite photo you’ve ever taken?

I have thousands upon thousands of photos, it would be incredibly difficult to pick my absolute favorite.

So I’ll share one that I think has a pretty funny story behind it. The original story as it was written here is below.

I arrived at Crescent City / Redwoods KOA Holiday about 20 minutes after the sun began to set and desperately needed to pee. Since the office was closed, I needed to grab my packet from the bulletin board, and then I rushed to the bathroom. Much to my chagrin, there was a bathroom code. I finally figured out while doing the pee-pee dance that the code was on my packet. With that issue resolved, I tried to read the map to figure out where my site was. It took a few missed turns and loops before I found my site, nestled on the curve of the camp road next to two occupied campsites. I could barely see the boundaries of my site and as far as I could tell the tent pad was right at the curve of the road. I was not having that, so I ended up having to put it on a slightly slanted part of the ground with the picnic table between me and the road.

The campsite made a lot more sense in daylight and realized where I was supposed to set up the tent was further back into the woods. It’s all good, it was still a wonderful site I’d love to go back to. Sleeping under the redwoods was really nice.

Here is a collection of my favorite photos that are currently uploaded to my site. Because I tried to go through the photos on my computer, and realized that would take years.

    Love the story. And great pics. I too have thousands upon thousands of photos. It’s overwhelming really. There is no way I could pick 500 of my favourite, let alone one. You did great here!

she hoped she wasn’t really headed anywhere in particular,
but just in case she was,
she had taken precautions to ensure it would take
her an exceptionally long time
to get there…
