I buy puzzles for my 5 year-old granddaughter, put them together in quarters, take them apart again, and package each quarter in a sandwich bag and mail everything to her. Then we have ZOOM visits and she puts a quarter together while we visit. I take pictures so that I can assist if she gets stuck. It's "almost" like a real visit.

You are so right Lars. 30 Street Station is a classic train station - it looks like a movie set. Unfortunately they removed that wonderful old Solari fip-board click sign that listed train arrivals and departures with a digital sign. There was something wonderfully nostalgic about watching the sign and hearing the rapid click clicks as the boards flipped. https://www.phillyvoice.com/30th-street-station-solari-board-amtrak-spit-flap-arrivals-departures-sign-officially-leaving/

Hot and dry. This is in Peru, the remnants of the ocean from many years ago, most of the shells were broken, unusual to find one this good. It was very dry there, I have zero desire to return.

Black is my very least favorite color. I have next to none of it in my house. The exception being electronics because that's just how they come these days. :) I chose a native American wedding vase that I got on a visit to Albequerque in 1981. I can't believe it's been 40 years!!! It's a piece made by Marie C. Pacheco, designed by Mr. Ramos of the Santo Domingo Pueblo Indians. I found a much smaller piece offered for sale right now for $175. Mine has a little chip (I have the piece) on the lip of one spout thanks to Rocket the cat knocking it to the floor!!! I really like this and it now sits safely behind glass doors.
