Happy Birthday to Me
Yoshiya nearly made it into the photo, but Mary didn't. I wish all the kids and grandkids could have been there (and that I could be at the 3 grandkid birthdays coming up this month).

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.

Many Happy Returns of the Day!!
By the time we realised it was your birthday, it wasn't your birthday in Japan any more. Lord willing we will be attending morning worship service at St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church in Molesworth this coming Sunday as well as the afternoon memorial service at the cemetery.
