A TOUCH OF JAPAN We had a fun day Monday when Linn and Keiko dropped in with Keiko's sister Kaori, from Osaka, Japan. She was in America for the first time and we did lots of "firsts"
We got subway sandwiches, which took a while with so many choices, and the fact that Kaori spoke very little English. Then we were off, with Thomas driving, up the hill about 5 miles out of town to Morgan Lake.
Such a nice place to spend a couple of hours resting and visiting. She was happy to see and video a snake, rather rare in Japan.
On the way home we saw a deer in someone's yard, which she tried to film out the window, but he moved too fast. Then we got home and there was one right in our own orchard. Lots of gifts were exchanged both ways, and she and Keiko taught me how to make an origami box. 
I had met Kaori years ago, in 1985 when I'd been in Japan with Linn and Keiko, meeting the family before Linn and Keiko were married. when she was a high school girl, not the lovely young woman she has become. All in all, it was a very fun day.
