Summertime

It's summer here in Japan. The air conditioner is in use. The rainy season is here. There are giant spiders and centipede in the house. Everyday I walk through enough spiderwebs to knit a sweater for a toy poodle.

I thought I'd show you some pictures from around the house. First, we have the front yard and the mountain across the street.

On the other side of that wall is a giant gutter. My car could fit in it. Crabs, frogs, fish, kingfishers, wagtails, spiders, and lizards make their home there. Mostly because I never clean out the weeds that grow there. But then, the school doesn't either.

Next I have some photos from a walk around Aogaki I took with some people from the KUStudio.
