Back on the Road now, but this post is of some photos of my Nana’s house.

I had been spending the past three weeks with my Nana and Papa.  Sleeping on my Nana’s couch, swapping travel stories over Lipton tea, eating coffee ice cream, watching PBS programs about music, eating way too much ice cream, and biking around the suburbs of Somerset, New Jersey have occupied most of my time.

My Nana and Papa don’t get my obsession with photographs and didn’t want their photograph taken (even photographs of their home took some sweet talking) but I was very interested in shooting some photographs in my time.

These ten photographs are of everyday objects around my Nana’s home. I titled it, Generation Gap:
