Some Shots Around the House

Not too exciting.  Some photos I took over the last few weeks:

Top: An ant on the counter.
Middle: The metal bracket that holds our water heater to the wall.  In Calif., water heaters are required to by secured like this.  It’s meant to stop the heater from tipping over during an earthquake.  No one wants boiling hot water flooding through the house, especially during an earthquake.
Left: The gas line for the water heater.  The dust, the metal, the “Do Not Reuse” tag.  I don’t know why, but I thought this was interesting.
