1. Sharing old photos with my sister 📸

I met up with the nicer one of my two sisters earlier in the week and surprised her with the first 700 of our parents’ old family photos, after working on them for many months.

I also shared the album with her on Google Photos, with many more in the pipeline nearing completion.

I had feared she might merely glance at them. That would have made all the time I’ve spent tagging them with people, places, and dates seem wasted.
