Flowers at Pike Place-K |
Generally, when we talk about the digital age, we are referring
to all those technical toys and tools that were unimagined in prior “ages.” From
Internet to iPads, SmartPhones to gigabytes and kitchen-based laptops, the digital age brings mind-boggling possibilities. For
those of us whose ages are approaching fourscore, the fluid use of digital "gadgets" by youngsters
is especially impressive.
When I was ten, my Brownie camera was a challenge.
The digital age might also allude to people born in the last
decade-and-a-half. Take my granddaughters, Katie and Maddie, whose combined age
is twenty, are definitely at the "digital age."

Their comfort-level and skill with their pocket-sized cameras
astonished me--not to mention their "eye" for a good picture. As they enjoyed playing "tourist" while visiting Seattle
recently, they snapped nearly two hundred pictures combined. You’ll have to agree—these
girls, whose ages in years are in the low digits, exemplify the possibilities afforded by—and to—the digital age.
