Day 2 of 5. Morning swims in the pacific ocean with @itsaaronmac . As you can see in the photo, now we got this. The water is much calmer in the morning and going up the coast a little further had clearer water. It was really lovely in a full body slow burn numbing kinda way. Head to my FB page (@jolynjanis - also, link in bio) to check out the facebook live video of today’s jump, complete with totally procrastinating by playing with facebook live filters and chasing a bird. #day2of5 #adventureswithfriends #morningswim #jolynjanisadventures #pacificocean🌊 #oceanswim #getoutsideandplay #getoutside (at Topanga Surf Break)

Finally visited @joshuatreenps 🙌🏽 When i passed by while moving to LA from Austin, there was a hailstorm so i didn’t stop and i just never made it back to the desert - until now. It’s so much fun to explore around. Ill be back with #lucythedog a bigger backpack and a ton more💧for some backcountry adventures and 3am stargazing ✨ (when the night sky is darkest) #desert #deserthiking🌵 #joshuatreenationalpark (at Joshua Tree National Park)

About last night... #instapix from the birthday party in #joshuatree . The little girl who took that epic selfie shot i zoomed in on took many of these. Interesting how these feel so damn precious and unique. Even though I have an extraordinary camera that i carry in my pocket, i appreciate the ritual of pushing a heavy button, hearing the gears respond and having a nondescript white card come out and offer itself to reality as a documentarian with whom to enjoy the reveal. it’s kinda like animated gifs too. Those were designed that way because most computers didn’t have frivolous bandwidth to process higher quality streams or video. Now that we have access to hi res video and editing, etc, there’s this pull to go back to simpler tech at least visually. Also, Minecraft. So many examples of low fi preferred over hi fi. #itsawonderfulworld #birthdayparty #evidenceoffun (at Joshua Tree, California)
