TBT: Ann Arbor With Aaron, July 2011

While I was preparing to mail in my last batch of film to The Darkroom to be processed, I found an old mystery roll sitting in a basket in the dining room. So I chucked it in the mailer and ponied up $11 to see what was on it.

Last time I did that, I got 30-year-old seagull photos from when my family lived in Florida. This time, I got four-year-old photos from one time Aaron and I spent the day in Ann Arbor.

Grammy’s Visit, June 2015

By appropriating code from Ye Olde Days of Flickr Slideshows — code which will undoubtedly be deprecated in the future — I bring you a slideshow of my favorite photos from my Mom’s visit a couple weeks back.

On Friday morning, we visited the zoo; on Saturday morning, the Butterfly House; and on Saturday afternoon, the Toledo Botanical Gardens. I didn’t bring my Nikon — I only had my Olympus XA and my iPhone 6. I also brought Connor’s Fisher-Price Kid-Tough Camera to the Zoo with us. (Mom had her Canon, of course, except during our impromptu trip to the Botanical Garden.)

We had a great time, and you can bet that some of these photos will make an appearance as photo posts of their own later on. A couple of the snaps of Connor really made me smile.
