Shaw Nature Reserve

I'm heading to this place called Shaw Nature Reserve today once I finish my homework. I'll post the pictures here once I take them.

Edit:

Well, in case you didn't read this blog's description that says I only take film pictures, well you know now that I only do that, and only take digital when I can't bring my FTb. Well, once those pictures are developed, which means 2 rolls of 24 exposure, 400-speed Kodak film at a sort of nearby camera place (which is not Walgreens or Wal-Mart... those places and grocery stores are only for when I'm in a hurry and have no other choice... meaning when I'm on vacation or something). Enough ranting... so yeah, I saw some awesome views from overlooks and observation decks and some trails and interesting stuff! So... I'll post the best of those pictures when I get them developed and scanned in.

Interesting things that happened there:
-As I sat down on a bench at the trail house, and began to load my first roll of film, a family came by, and I heard one of the kids (two boys about the age of 10 or younger) ask to take a picture of the house, and the parents walked by and saw me loading the film in, and they said "Oh look, a real camera!" Of course, I laughed. She was probably refering to how the kids were using one of those point-and-shoot digital cameras, and I had an old, 100% manually operated film SLR.

-There was this kid and his Mom that seemed to be going on the same trails I was going on for a while, and the kid convinced me to get into this teepee thing that was set up off the side of one of the trails, and good thing I went in there, because I saw some interesting photo opportunities in there! He was cool, the kid.
