CHROMAKOPIA
My wife scored us tickets to see Tyler, The Creator! It was an amazing show, but you know you're getting older when you start calculating the time it takes to get home instead of how to sneak a selfie with the artist. Halfway through, we looked at each other like, "Is it just me, or is this mosh pit starting to look like a retirement home dance party?"

Tower is clear
Growing up in a family full of big space nerds we always had model rocket launches at family events. These days I don't get to get back to my hometown to visit very often, so it is always a good time when we break out the ol' launch pad and put oversized engines in little dinky rockets.

I think this snap catches the moment
