What would be missed

Were we to decamp without notice, we wouldn't be able to carry the only things valued: books, recorded music, the yard and garden. The physical medium of the music wouldn't truly be needed; the music itself would stay in the head. A garden can never be replicated; it belongs just where it is. Even though the books were acquired mostly during the golden era of cheap quality paperbooks, we would be able to try to rebuild a library were there sufficient money. Because tidywork is soothing, we've been doing a lot of it when Club Desvelado is in session. Now, thanks to Readerware (and to CueCat for books new enough to have a bar code and an ISBN), we now not only know what's there; it has finally been updated and backed up. We're very visual people, but images travel well in the mind. Some people try to save photographs, but, really, they're only aids to memory for those alive at the time that the photographs were made; they have another meaning altogether for anyone coming after.
