A Walk to the Mountains

1.These old houses lined the streets all the way to the mountains. We cut through Agata no Mori park this morning and our journey began.

2.These beautiful flowers are actually weeds.

3.The long and winding road.

4.More old-style homes with gardens.

5.Jesse walking past a garden on our way to the mountains.

6.This is Tosenji Temple. We had no idea that we a temple would be down the road we had followed, and that is one of the most exciting aspects about life here; you never know what you will find around the corner.

7.A beautiful home.

8.A steep mountain road that Jesse and I followed for a long ways. Not many cars could make it up there without 4-wheel drive.

9.Standing by a stream that ran down the mountain.

10.A view of the beautiful trees.

Thank you Becka. I will try not to fall off a mountain or cliff anywhere, but as you know, I am one of the most accident prone people in the world. I hope that you and Ned are doing well. Please tell everyone "hi" for me. Take care.
