I'm slowly working on a project to digitize all the VHS cassettes I and my parents still own. Several months ago I picked up a parge bin of tapes from their house, but I haven't had time to convert them until recently.

Early this week, we made a very short trip to Canada for a family celebration in Vancouver. I'd never been to Canada before, and I greatly enjoyed all the new sights and quirks of Canadian life. One of my favorites was this steam clock.

During our weekly grocery store visit, we headed to the dairy section for milk and eggs. While most of the eggs are white, a few brands sell cartons brown eggs--but today an imposter slipped into one of them.

A park in the city features a collection of miniature fairy houses along one of the trails. We've seen many of them before, but this year we were presented with an entire town's worth of houses all in one display. This was one of my favorite exhibits.

I don't buy twisty puzzles very often anymore, but many of my long-time friends still know me for my love of Rubik's Cubes. One of them found a giant cube at a store and immediately bought it for me as an imprompty Christmas present.

We spent Christmas week in Connecticut this year. While visiting New Haven one day, we found ourselves near the Yale campus, and we took in many of the sights. One that stood out to me was this utility pole, covered in staples left over from various flyers and posters.
