All day with pictures

I did not grab my camera and go to the woods. Instead, I grabbed a mouse and click my way through several hundred pics, deleting the unworthy ones. Every picture can have worth but I cannot keep every snapshot. Pictures can be somewhat like clutter. We keep too many and miss out on the few that really matter. I had close to 3,000 pictures from our 30 year anniversary trip to South Carolina. I was so thankful for my written trip journal. It will help me compile the book and document the memories.

I was also able to go through 3-400 of my daughter and her husband's train trip to Idaho last Summer. It is easy to become overwhelmed and lose hope that one day I will have all the pictures tagged and easy to locate.

This morning, actually at noon, I have a dental cleaning scheduled. From the dentist, I will head to the thrift store to locate a couple of old computer keyboards for a photoshoot tomorrow. I also hope to go by my son's house and work on clearing out my junk from his garage. He has been so patient.
