Jimoto no Gaijin

Who am I? Since 1985,a resident of Ajigasawa, a small town on the west coast of Honshu, Japan- yes, way up there near the top, in Aomori Prefecture. Problem? I've got the wrong face (Canadian Celt). People still give a start when they round the supermarket aisle and see me. So, who am I? Jimoto no Gaijin- the local foreigner.

Curiosity- maybe that's why I like cats?

A Visitor From The woods

Yep, still here. Just haven't had much to say lately, or else far too much.
Today we had a Steering Committee meeting for our church association. It was interrupted by this fellow.

This is a "sparrow wasp"- we grow 'em big, here. Those are inches on the tape, not centemeters. Fortunately, these wasps are not very aggressive. One sting can land you in hospital- or in the morgue.
The meeting was concluded successfully -as successfully as any of them ever are- after I disposed of this intruder. I don't mind them in the woods, but in the church...
