I never outgrow most of my toys, but I send some of them
to easy retirement atop various bookcases in my home office.
At front left is the microscope my father gave me in
1956. Behind it and barely visible is a cup from my wife
commemorating Barack Obama's election
victory.
The the left of the Obama cup is a wire model of New York
City's George Washington Bridge. In front of the bridge
are eyeglasses containing 3D holograms of Peace symbols
that my wife bought at the nearby Bethel Woods museum.
To the right of the glasses is a model of a London
double-decker bus from my wife when she visited England.
To the right of the bus is a pair of
mini-binoculars. Finally, at upper right is a portion of my former New
Jersey
license plate bearing the inscription, "N DEPTH," a
reference to my stereo photography passion.
All this stuff is too good to throw away, yet collectively
are reminders of the junk--I mean, TREASURES that I will
probably accumulate till the day I die !!
