I finally got back to working on photos today – I want to replace the photos in the Apple Photos library with the good ones I intend to keep, properly labeled and geolocated.

I got as far as my trip to Japan with the Technology Council of the IBM Academy of Technology in 2004; not only did I have my own photos in the collection, I had photos from two friends who were there, too. I’d already made one pass over the photos, but this time I was more selective. I also did more research on some of the photos from the day at the Toshugu Shrine in Nikko to figure out what buildings were in the photos – Google Image Search and Wikimedia Commons are powerful tools.

Needless to say, I didn’t finish. Tomorrow is another opportunity.

Tonight was the first night of Passover; naturally, we attended a Seder with our friends. It was slightly too soon to be able to get together safely, even though many of us had been vaccinated, so we did it on Zoom.

Next year in person!
