Somewhere in a Baham landfill are 36 rolls of Kodachrome from our vacation there in the seventies. Great composed shots of Cathy on white beaches in a swimsuit, great sunsets or enjoying the night life.
Left in a drawer in the hotel.
They never made it home and I miss them. Small as it is, I would not have lost an SD disk.
Cathy sure looked good that week.
I imagine some rustafarion likely has them hanging in his bathroom.
This sample of what I lost from the roll still in my camera when we got home.
