My iPhone 6

My iPhone 6 has been to almost as many places as I have.  Since April, 2015, it has traveled to Puerto Rico, through the Panama Canal, to Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico, California, Bermuda, St. Maartin, Haiti, Key West and Havana, Cuba.  Most of its journey was as a passenger in my right front pants pocket, but it came out occasionally to snap a picture or two (ok, exactly 6,592 pictures and 453 videos).

It’s been used more as a camera than a phone.  Screen shots from the internet have taken the place of handwritten notes.  I’ve played 1,744games of Words With Friends, winning 38% of the time (hey, I have some very tough competition) and there were 7 ties.

I play music on my iPhone and watch TV and YouTube clips.

I keep track of my banking and pay bills electronically.

I even track the number of steps I take.

My iPhone does not require food, sleep or shelter – just a few jolts of electricity every so often.
