Good morning. Dry & cool in Tokyo today. Doing a bit of catchup work in the office. Mentoring session online later with one of my clients in Australia. Fairly chilled but productive day in prospect.

Couple of shots from the i-Link Tower in Ichikawa for #Stunday. More in the ALT.

Luv&peace
❤️🙏

I took my human to the beach

We spilled a tray of fried
oysters into the sand

a parent can
choose to not loose their
shit when the coveted
oysters are in the sand

My new iPhone fell into the
ocean this day
gone forever

I remained calm

My child said this was
the best beach day of his life

This is at about 70% throttle. New motor we’ve put in this is insane. Full power it’s around 70kph.

It’s ME! I met a hero today! @gaijinmommy.bsky.social gave me a much enjoyed light hearted field trip and tour around Tokyo Tower! One of the nicest things some one has done for me in forever ❤️ ✌️
Y’all I just had the most fun morning ever with guess who this is…

I walked to the corner and took this picture yesterday

This microscopic town and I are separating

I am moving on to another Japan

I don’t know where

but this extreme rural living is not sustainable

It’s beautiful here

It’s hypnotic

now

Is the time

to break

the trance

When I moved to Japan after about a year I tried it out social media.

Now.

I have a whole community on Twitter.

A gang of the like minded carefully curated friends.

Real people

Now….
How in the name of god and

am I

a grown ass man supposed to do it all over again here…..

The view of the mountains from the front yard this morning is worthy of applause.

Everyone in my tiny village here in Japan is so used to it that nobody looks up.

It’s like the cacophony of sound in New York City that the natives are oblivious to

🇯🇵 I just found this eraser. It probably cost ¥80 or so like 60¢ US. In Japan it would be unthinkable to take the lost eraser. I propped it up where someone could find it. The default is returning things/not stealing here. It’s wild. You can loose anything and have it returned 👨🏾‍🚀

These are two portraits of
John Coltrane

On the left is his
United States Navy enlistment photo

The one on the right
Is the cover of an album
A Love Supreme
An album
that if listened to properly
allows one
to glimpse the face
of God herself
