More Oyabaka ( This time its my fault)
Taking a break from farming to give Momo-chan some chi-chi love. (No matter how often I ask, Tomoe never does that for me in the rice field.)
We had decided not to take customers this spring, but there was one guy who was really flexible and he wanted to do a lot of the things I wanted to do anyway, such as ride and climb tall mountains - and he doesn't need a support van and is willing to camp in shrines or out of the way places. He sounded too good so we made an exception for him and now I will be doing a one-week trip. I will probably not have time to post anything until he is gone, so I leave you with many many photos of Mona Risa.
Once again, there were too many good ones and I couldn't narrow it down, so you have to scroll down through all of them.
The neighbor, who just came back from picking wild zenmai lady goos and gaas at her.
My mom says her hair makes her look like "That Korean leader guy". If he was this cute, I think the world would be very different.

Kevin & Tomoe, Sorry to be so negligent in acknowledging little Mona's birth way back on 1/10/10. She is such a beautiful little baby - just exquisitely precious & the prettiest baby I have ever seen! You must be bursting your buttons with pride. Of course, I think Tomoe is so pretty too! You have been blessed! Will be hopefully sending something via your parents when they come soon to visit. Just got back from a trip to Playa del Carmen, Mexico in the Yucatan where we rondezvoused with Craig, Dolores & Avery, Dolores' parents & 1 of her cousins. Had a great time but it was horribly hot & humid the whole time. Memorial Day weekend this week. After that, things should settle down.
Do you have any photos of Japanese lighthouses?

Absolute cutie, your oyabaka is completely justified. I'd support Mona's bid to lead North Korea. "Naps every four hours" is the kind of policy I could really get behind...
Hope all's well!

I agree about the fifth photo. We had the picture developed and it is just great. She is a little beauty.

Mona looks beautiful, Kevin. Mesmerizing eyes. I'm listening to the frogs in the paddy behind our building as I go to sleep.
