I borrowed a scanner from a friend and decided to archive all of my physical photos from about 1997 to 2003, the time in my life where I owned a film camera. So far I have scanned 734 photos and it has been fairly painstaking pulling picture after picture out of these old albums, scanning four at a time, putting them back in the album, and so on. But I am having fun looking back at the olden days and sharing many of the photos on Facebook!

I probably won’t go embarrassing the family by posting pictures of them on Facebook, but far fewer people visit this blog and I think it will be a good opportunity to share a few gems.
