From 2021, when I helped my father install a weather station on the roof of their house. While I was up there, I decided to take pictures of the grounds, the oak tree near the southwest corner of the house and of course, the weather station.

2017, next to my parents' pond, around sunrise. I can't remember why I was awake at that early hour...

Back in 2017, when I got some very interesting sky shots before and during a thunderstorm. Even got a couple of lightning shots!!

From 2012. In the middle of the kitchen floor, Quasar and Dexter were either grooming or playing with each other. Kinda hard to tell.

From 2011. When I was using my old HP laptop, my parents' cat, Dexter (almost 4 months old at that time), decided to lay across it.

2002, at my parents' place. The pond had just refilled (it had been emptied and dug deeper earlier that same year).

1993, behind my parents' old house, looking at the backside of the house from the opposite end of the yard. During the winter before that, aluminum siding had been installed on the house. Earlier that spring, the old garage had been repainted to match.

1982, in the diningroom of my parents' old house. This was probably a week or so before I was born. For whatever reason, their cat, Tyrone, was in the highchair, which looked rather amusing! 😂

I would be far, far happier if I could have a certain part of my body removed. I could live so much better without it... 😠😠ðŸ˜

The young autumn blaze maple tree that is closest to the pine trees and the front of my parents' house, 2021 and now. Out of the three smaller maple trees, this guy has shot up the most!! 🙂

The other bigger autumn blaze maple near the south end of my parents' front yard. This one has a really sad story. 😢

The largest autumn blaze maple, furthest away from my parents' house, and near the west fence line. 2021 and now. I stood by it for scale.

2021, in the front yard area of my parents' place. In the area behind the shop building, three 8-foot maple trees (two autumn blazes and one red maple) were planted. In four years, two of them have really shot up in height, especially the one closest to the front of the house!
