Wandering unsupervised in various real and imaginary places. Detritus reflects my interests in robotics, travel, history and the odder aspects of the world around me.

Least Surprising Sign Ever
A Family Video outlet that somehow lingered on until 2019 recently closed. I guess the surprising thing in an era of infinite video streaming is that it took so long.
It's down the street from assorted 19th century relics. A big barn formerly used by brewery wagon horses. Store fronts that once held small groceries. A brick building - now condo'd up - that was once a biscuit factory.
Progress marches on. Sometimes towards the better, sometimes not, but always marching.
Progess requires change, but not all change is progress.
