I went through a similar process when my parents died with their photo albums - and they had quite a few. I was scanning the “good” ones for distribution amongst my siblings mostly.
I have to say No 5 was slightly disproven by your example. Maybe scan the ones that spark a memory for you? Even if you know nobody else will want them. In time we need the odd aide-memoire.
If I applied No 4 with your example in mind, I would have ceased to exist long ago 😂.
Thanks for the comment! For #5, we actually look for coin laundry every time we go anywhere longer than a week. The difference is that now we have the Internet so it’s easy to plan ahead,. It’s less of an adventure…
As for #4, this isn’t a problem in the digital era as it’s easier to “zoom”, frame, preview, and retake photos in real-time! Also, the 0.5 selfie is just good at distorting people anyway!
