I was reviewing all my posts from the last month on the trail, and one major one is missing. Not sure what happened there, but I’m going to blame spotty service.
My camera on my phone did come back, although it’s only the “selfie” camera that works all the time. Since I’m not a huge fan of constant selfies, that’s too bad. BUT the regular camera did come back after weeks of my phone living in a bag of rice. Not that I should break out the sparklers and start celebrating though; it’s super finicky. Sometimes it works just fine, sometimes it says, “Hell NO!”, and then sometimes it looks like it’s going to work, then just as I’m about to hit the button it freezes, the screen starts turning every color of the rainbow, and it dies.
I think I’ve figured out sly ways to work around its bad attitude, but sometimes it’s just not going to happen, but then there are the other times…
So, here are a few shots from the trail… Thank you Apple for making one heck of a product. I’m just amazed it came back at all.
