That's my plan. I am copying the picture files onto DVDs, will keep copies and send duplicate copies of the DVDs to a relative or friend who lives elsewhere and is unlikely to experience the same events (say my in-laws in the Rockies). Hopefully, they will send me copies of their photos on DVDs. If either of our homes is ever destroyed, our precious memories will still be preserved.

I like flash drives, but once things are burned onto DVD, copying them is easy.
