Fujifilm X-E3

Pictures taken with my Fujifilm X-E3. This is the third Fujifilm Camera I’ve bought, and the best so far.

Furnace Closet refurb complete — No more green paint, and the many years of scratches, scrapes and various holes drilled in the walls have been patched. 2

Dyson battery & charger holder — It must be summer. Time for some work around the house. It’s too hot and buggy to be outside. 3

Back in the workshop — It must be summer. Unfortunately, it’s now too hot and buggy for hiking or sitting around outside. Time for some work around the house.

Finally finished — Two years later, I patched and repainted the wall. 1

Table Rock Lake was the highest I’ve seen it — At 928.5 ft. It was 18 ft higher than when I was last here in September 2024.

Making a cup of tea.

Camped by Table Rock Lake at Piney Creek Wilderness — Camped by Table Rock Lake at Piney Creek Wilderness. The lake was a lot nearer to my campsite than usual.

Piney Creek Wilderness, Table Rock Lake. Looking west towards Buck Hollow and Piney Creek. I took a short hike further east along the lakeshore to find a spot where I could see out across the lake.

Packing for four days by the lake — I’m off to spend four days sitting watching the Lake at my favorite Piney Creek Wilderness camping spot.

Sunday check, clean, and oil — My Sig P938 got very wet while backpacking in the rain at Hercules Glades a while back. Today, I decided to give it a good cleaning and thorough inspection. 1

Camped on ‘Ant Hill’ — I’ve camped on ‘Ant Hill’ before, but this time, I had to shift to a nearby location to avoid a dicey-looking dead tree.

Wear and tear — That’s what over 100 days of backpacking will do. 1 3

When did I grow old? It feels like I blinked, and suddenly I’ve aged — I was writing in my journal when I noticed how old my hands looked. I don’t feel older, but I now have my grandparents’ hands: the loose flesh, thin skin, age spots, and prominent veins.

Trip preparation — Charging my InReach and battery block. Printing out and checking the weather forecast. Gathering maps and prepping my trail journal. Getting ready for four days out on the Berryman Trail.

Fan — It’s the usual story; I liked the play of the light. 🙂

Ginger’s Studio Worktable. A hurried shot that I should have taken more time over.
