Rice Harvest
Our rice has been harvested. I had to take pictures of the next paddy down to give you an idea of how it is done. With me working hubbies business at home, writing, taking care of fil and the rest of the family, I have very little time to post. I think that I have set the pattern for this fall,...

Dare I?
I haven't been on here in days although I think about Blogit and my blogit friends alot. I don't seem to be able to get on here as regularly as I mean to. I have some pictures, and I promise not to set them side by side for the panaramic view effect because I realize it makes for difficult reading....

continued from a tired cheerleader
I had all the pictures up but nothing was coming to enable me to post anything of any value. Hurriedly jogged out lines was all I could come up with. Then Hubby wanted me to go with him to get the bags and envelopes for sending out his silver jewelry, and I couldn't get out of this place fast...

These pictures are rather random, I couldn't resist snapping them for the sky. Fuji san can be seen vaguely on the lower left. If you put these two photos side by side you could get a nice panaramic view Here is E at her game yesterday She is one of them up there but that is her down here. These are...

Moon Reflections continued
The true sign of fall is these flowers, higan bana, higan is the fall equinox, and hana is flower. It is yet another important memorial time, a time to visit the graves of your ancestors. I guess temples are hopping this time of year. I love these flowers, (what are they called in English?) the...

Moon Reflections
September is the moon viewing month here. This was around the fifteenth on the night of the full moon. You are supposed to eat dango, little mochi balls on a stick, as you veiw the moon and listen to the sounds the crickets make. Hear them? This picture below has the bullet train whizzing by, that...

Carp on the Cutting Board
'Like a carp on the cutting board' says hubby refering to himself, with no sence of doom. So I asked him about it. What does it mean? We were walking. We took two walks on Sunday. He has had three interviews and taken a test and so all he can do is wait. This is before the news of Lieman Brothers...

I Want to Wander Here
I feel I have been complaining alot here. To make up for my whining, I am posting these two fall pictures that were my favorite from a fall viewing picture contest I found, so these aren't mine. Although it is still hot, the humidity is down and there is a cool enough breeze not to have to turn on...
