When you VO space on Time Machine in the Dock, after a few seconds, there
should be a Time Machine Controls window. You might need to use the Window
Chooser menu to find it. When you are there, there is a horizontal slider you
can interact with to go back in time. Again, though, there seems to be no way
to select specific items. You can restore an entire backup, I believe.
