Memories. Ahhh Yes, Memories of My Life

Hobbies

PROMPT July 19th

Besides writing, tell us about a hobby you have. How did you discover it? How long have you been doing it?

         Hmmmm, hobbies. Photography. I've been interested in that since I was a child. When I was nine, I sold newspapers on a street corner and saved up money to buy a Brownie Camera from a Ben Franklin store. (It cost me $7.00 if I remember correctly.) I loved that camera, and over the years, I've own many kinds and models. In 2004, I bought my first digital camera, and never looked back. To me, the photo's are here for when my mind forgets details of places I've been. It documents where I've been, amuses me when I want to see places, and keeps the memory sharp. Not sure I have other hobbies, unless you count music as one. But I won't write about that again tonight...
