2 Years: Travellin' Man: - Part Deux

Remember this post, where we outlined the boundaries of where August had been in his life? He was only 6 months old when this was the bounding box of his earthly travels (rule is: the area never "indents", can only be expanded outward like a blob... all inner angles are less than 180°):


Well after all the travel we've done in the past 9 months or so, the map has grown impressively:


If you look carefully, you can see the old area in bright pink at the top-right... he's a travellin' man indeed.

Update
A bounding box for August's extreme N, S, E, and W points:

2 Years: Heritage

Two photos of August's heritage.

The first was discovered while browsing for name ideas in "Watson Family Notes" - a family memoir written by August's great grandfather, Robert C. Watson. This was one of the houses in Washington, DC that was built by his father James (August's great great grandfather), probably somewhere between 1900 and 1910:


A quick trip to Google Maps and Street View shows the house still standing, no noticeable exterior renovations:


16th St. & Park Rd, NW, Washington DC. The Mt. Pleasant neighborhood, in which "the residents, particularly the young, could live happily" - according to Grandpa Watson. When I was a boy growing up in the DC area, and probably well into the 90's, the Mt. Pleasant neighborhood was a bit iffy. Looking at this photo it looks as if it's doing quite well. More power to Mt. Pleasant of yesterday and today.
