When traveling solo, I tend to make things simple. Fulfilled gas tank is the first must, map, camera and a few rolls of film, an easy carried bag, and sunglasses -- not for looking cool, but for protection.

Memories Swept Away
I lost one film which I took most pictures in Nevada City. It was also one of the oldest mining town. I met an old lady who moved there in 1950, and another museum attandant who knows a lot of stories about Chinese immigrants. This film records the spirit of this trp, but lost in the half way.
