What kind of idiot brings a camera full of black and white film to the botanical garden, anyway? (A: this kind of idiot.)

Introducing the Film Project
Many months ago my digital camera died. I still don't have a workable replacement, and after a nice break from photography I think I'm ready to come back.
What I find most tedious about digital photography is dealing with files. Get the files off the camera (20-45 minutes), load them into Lightroom (another 30+ minutes), go through and pick the selects (another 20 minutes), edit the selects (infinite minutes), export the files (tedious), then upload or print the photos (even more tedium). It's all entirely too much.
So for this project, I am going to scan in a film negative. I have a little Automator script I wrote to size it down. Then I will upload it. No editing. The whole goal is to reduce the amount of time I spend in front of the computer.
Some of the photos I will upload are photos I took a few weeks ago. Some of them are over 20 years old. This one is from our Summer vacation about three years ago.
