Myoujin Mountain Hiking
June 2010 - Hiking at Myoujin Mountain,
Oji, Kitakatsuragi-gun, Nara, Japan. These pictures are from
various date but most likely the middle of Summer based on the clothes we are
wearing. |

mountain and various hiking trails. |

Hi. I am not doing good now. My knee is really messed up. Actually woke up many
times the last couple nights and put ice on the knee. Really difficult to walk.
Akiko is looking for a job. Shai is getting crazier now. Japan is getting
warmer. The house is looking pretty good although still many projects to finish.
Planning to get the school going within the next few weeks. Hopefully you guys
are doing good. Send email when you can.
Howie.
