I love the idea of putting together an album like this; not just random pretty photos, but those that carry meaning we hope to share with future generations. I’ll be giving this some thought. Thanks for sharing.

Very well done Walter, if I may make so bold. Thought provoking of course...

This is deeply moving. The bicycle moment really got to me, how something simple like a bike literaly expands the boundries of a kid's universe. I've been putting off digitizing old family photos myself, but this reminded me how those images aren't just pixels. They're threads connecting generations, especially when memory itself begins to fray. The idea of leaving a meaningful legacy rather than random snapshots is somethnig that needed saying.

I enjoy all of your writing, but this was especially well executed.

Ten points.

Such a great gift! I think there's no better trip down memory lane than going through old photos, and for the younger ones to learn something about their family history. I love going through piles and piles of old photos my parents and their parents have taken before me.
