I posted this 6 years ago, on 17May2020 - "When I lived in Japan, hearing the sound of my copy of the English Japan Times drop through the slit in my apartment’s metal door was one of my favorite things.

I'm not posting to FB anymore, but I still Follow some photographers. I also check my daily FB Memories photos. These Memories were from today's post, from the years 2014,18,20,22 and 23, in no particular order.

looking forward to walking along this trail in July...

They ran out of money, or they didn't check the land restrictions whatever...

Island Hopping

I remember my first big upgrade, the Apple IIe. It might have been "the enhanced Apple IIe in 1985, which had 128k RAM". Wow! 128k!" I'm just kicking at these technological hurdles nowadays...knock'em over or push them aside. I can't figure them out anyway. Haha. But I have been dipping my toes into AI lately. We'll see...
