My uncle turns 90 in August. He lives in Somesville, ME, just outside of Bar Barbor on Mt. Desert Island. Most of the island is the home of Acadia National Park. I'd love to ride up to his party on the 8th, and then ride back home. That would be a neat trip.

Yeah, that would be great. I want to get up to nova scotia too.

Does that mean YOU would start carrying around a camera?

At one time I would have agreed, but these days, if I dont have photographic evidence, I forget it happened. Advanced ADHD alzheimers maybe? I can look at photos and it brings it all back.

More often then not there are things in my life that I don't want to remember. So cameras are not a high priority.

True... But photos can spark memories you've forgotten you remember. (it makes sense I swear)

I need to be better about taking more photos. I get in a rush too much.

That's why you keep making new memories, sorry I am just not a fan of photos when it comes to my life.
