• I went to the thrift store yesterday. Wandered the aisles, looked at the heaps of junk piled on top of the clothes racks...

  I eventually found a couple of cool things. One is a telephoto lens and filter that will fit my camera, and the other is a Polaroid SX-70 Land Camera. It's the model that folds up into a slab just a little bigger than a paperback book.

  I'm jazzed about the lens, mostly because it confirms my theory that as long as you aren't in a hurry, thrift stores will provide you with what you need. I've been shopping around for a cheap telephoto lens, and also a UV filter, and wouldn't you know it, I got both for $10 (the price of the filter alone).
