I keep meaning to write about my first year participating in the Chinese New Year Treasure Hunt, but I am a dreadful reviewer. Did I take notes? No. Did I record all of my thoughts as soon as I got home? Not even close. My review, therefore, goes like this: we walked (quickly, although there were moments of moseying) all over Chinatown and North Beach and the Financial District, solved puzzles, laughed a lot, and finished with only one question unanswered.
At least I took some video. And let me tell you: there is nothing quite so humbling as watching oneself on video.
Not exactly caveats, but it bears noting: Yes, my face really moves like that when I talk. No, I wasn’t under the influence. Yes, I wear that hat out in public. No, I had no prior experience with handheld videocams.
Yes, I would do it all again next year.

“Yes, my face really moves like that when I talk.”
Hah! I was noticing that! But it is pretty nifty like most everything else Halsted-related.
This is the feel-good hit of the spring! Riveting. Cygnoir’s camera weaves magic upon the screen. Catch it.
The Halsted Witch project!!!
