Typhoon #10

Today marked the passing of the tenth typhoon of the season. That's a whole lot of typhoons. I was here one year when there were only four of them. This is nuts. We didn't have it all that bad. They downgraded the typhoon once it hit Honshu and they get really weak as they move up on land, so we just got a speck of wind and some heavy rain.

I taught at a local grade school yesterday. It was pretty fun as I knew most of the kids there. They seemed to speak more English than the teachers. There was one teacher there who could speak quite a bit, who would translate what the other teachers said for me. It was fun, but not sure if I'll do it again anytime soon.

Mari brought me a couple of magazines from Tokyo when she went down this weekend. Outdoor Photographer and FourWheeler. My photographic senses are getting peaked again, so I need to go take some pictures soon. I'm going to look for some contests to get some inspiration and direction for it.

I whipped out my guitar today and played and sang some worship this morning. It felt really good. I have some music recording software on my computer now, so maybe I can save some stuff. I have to be careful as I have a habit of blowing up sound cards. It happens.

Off I go to wash the dishes. Someone has to do it, I guess.
