荒川 (山梨県)

kofu arakawa river Yamanashi Prefectural Central Hospital tennis courts

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.

Happy birthday, Olle Bergholz!

Missouri River Overlook

Missouri River Overlook

As promised, the reverse angle on that prior photo from near Fort Benton on the Missouri River. I would have missed this place entirely had it not been for my need to pee. It’s called the Missouri River Overlook on Google Maps.

Waseda revisited

waseda university 早稲田大学

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.

Hawaii (December 2017)

We’ve been to all of the Hawaiian islands once now, but in just two months we are going back to the first island we visited (way back in 1997), Maui.
