I did one pass to get rid of some definite photo-clutter: Polaroids that my mother-in-law took over the years. For one thing, I’m afraid my dear M-i-L was not a good photographer. For another, the photos themselves are deteriorating. They are becoming darker and darker, and beginning to fade away to a black square. So I pitched them.

Now I have a bunch of unidentified photos and no one left to identify them, so I may just scan them and submit them to Dead Fred, and let them go, too.
