The Big Sort

Yeah, yeah, I’ve been hunting treasures again, and now I think it’s time to knock that shit off for a good long while, because I’ve got a ton of stuff to sort through. I also have a lot of pictures to upload from fun events in the last week or so. So I’ll be online a lot, going through boxes and getting rid of unwanted stuff.

Asagao Memorial: "We love you. We miss you."

After an enjoyable evening as a tiny audience member at the geisha performance at Asagao Treasures, I “got big” so I could walk around more easily, shopped, and then discovered that there was a treasure hunt. For a change, it involved looking for “photos” that had been taken at various spots – very arty, pretty photos, so that it was a pleasure to walk around looking at the lovely garden area, which was called “Asagao…
