I'm not sure why I took these pictures at the time, but it's a nice little time capsule. This picture is a little blurry because it was taken without a flash. Unfortunately, you can't really see the things that are there. That's my beloved Tigers hat on the desk. There's a fedora on the hat rack. My Peanuts books are on the desk to the left with a Snoopy doll on top. You can barely see on the middle shelf a boxed Power & Perils RPG game. If you haven't heard of it, you haven't missed anything. Next to it are some Starblaze books: Elfquest, Lightrunner, and Myth Adventures. I no longer have those. I don't see my Robotech art books there. Maybe this was before I got them. There's also some Marvel graphic novels.
This one was taken with a flash. There's my
Ruby (the sci-fi radio drama) poster and my
Excalibur promo poster. Then there's a fashion poster. For some reason, I took down the
Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue pictures that you can barely see above. The top shelf has my paperbacks. I was a big Larry Niven (sci-fi) fan and
Lord of the Rings. On the middle shelf are my
AD&D books and a
Paranoia RPG box set. I don't have those anymore.
I inherited a big penny collection. These were kept in a hushpuppy piggy bank. You can just barely see it on top of the shelf next to the Tumbleweeds painting (which came from a shopping trip to Juarez when I was a little kid). At some point, carrying around a bunch change seemed silly, so I cashed it in. I don't remember how much it was.
Here's the lamppost down the street from where I lived. Here's what it looks like in the
snow. That's a novelty caption I bought at a One-Hour developer.
Here's a couple of views around the house at sunset.
Lastly, a tree died in our backyard. Dad built a well around the stump. It was heavy and cemented in place, but windstorms knocked it over a couple of times.
