And then one day you find…
…ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
荒川 (山梨県)
Kofu’s Arakawa River dusk (August 2013)
The Yamanashi Prefectural Central Hospital is the building on the left of this photo. The day was super hot and humid, but you can still barely make out Mt. Fuji in this image slightly right of center. On a clear day (and humid days never are), this is a decent spot to view Mt. Fuji.
The Arakawa River may not look like much in this photo, but it actually has a tendency to flood, which is why there are pedestrian and bike paths along the side of the river instead of homes.
Waseda revisited
早稲田大学 (April 2010)
Revisited in photos only, unfortunately. I haven’t set foot on the grounds for almost 10 years, and today’s photo comes from over 12 years ago when I was working at Waseda University. Those were some good times.
Should I ever make it there again, what I’d really like to see is the new Haruki Murakami Library. I checked out (and of course read) many Murakami books in the old library.
12 years ago…
Kamakura Daibutsu (July 2010)
Portland Japanese Flat Garden
@PDXJapaneseGdn
I’ve visited Portland at least a couple dozen times over the past 25 years. I thought I had been to the Portland Japanese Garden about 20 years ago. We went for a visit this past weekend, and I realized it was the Seattle Japanese Garden that I went to long ago so this was a first. There was a pretty good downpour just before (and just after) taking this photo (which is a photomerge of 22 photos) so not many people around.
