Routine month with work finalizing accepted papers and trips to Rotorua and the Catlins, as well as helping with a Snowcraft course at Whakapapa.
A more selective August, with fewer sets processed but more pictures.
Thoughts on differences between the book version and film version of Ru.
‘Optimizing’ some flights to New Zealand.
Travels continued with another tramp on the South Island and a trip to Australia. Research continues with a submission to HATRA and revisions of our paper on race freedom verification.
Our long-delayed trip to Melbourne, plus a side-trip to Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef.
Treading water: processed a lot of albums in July, but took about the same number of pictures (in 11 sets) as I processed.
‘Mountain day’ on the Overland Track, through Pelion Gap with side trips to Ossa (Tasmania highpoint) and Pelion East, before reaching Kia Ora Hut during golden hour.
Mud day on the Overland Track: down to Frog Flats and back up. Lots of fungi, a few birds at New Pelion, and two shovels.
Some work, though mostly waiting and advising and not paper writing. More than half the month on the road, in Tasmania and on the South Island (again, not Cascade Saddle, but we did go on a boat in Doubtful Sound.)
