I sometimes navigate to my old family home on Google Maps, flip to StreetView and use the slider to go back to 2009.
There I see my dad in his white overalls, painting the outside of the house. His car and my mum's car sit on the driveway.
They're both still alive and well on StreetView. My mum has nagged my dad to take a week off from being a professional decorator to paint their house, and she's inside, doing some crafting project or other.
It's simultaneously comforting and heartbreaking.
