as something slipped in the San Jose magazine for
a friend running the gas field that I was away.
I then went a long ways of the trail to Omong,
just had his kids. I shot at the rear guard of
a flock of 8 or 9 grey crows or geese close on top
of the hill past the second bridge. A little further up
the trail there was a smaller native trail leading off
to the right which lead to a deserted native village most
of the houses were fallen down but there was
a tangerine tree which was full of fruit and most still
green. We picked by quite a number. Later afternoon
was spent in skinning a Phalanga that Brad shot on top of the mountain back of camp. I took a
number of photos of him also some of the peach
with the young one. It took me a long time to
finish them as the skin was tender and did
not come off easily.
