31 October, 2010: Trick or Treating in Negishi
Typhoon Chaba has moved through the area, turned back out to sea, and took (most of) the rain with it. Sunday afternoon I messaged a friend living on the Negishi base to see if trick or treating would be canceled or not and received a reply back that it was still on for the evening.
30 October, 2010: Typhoon Chaba for Halloween
Friday evening Typhoon Chaba started to move into the area and the rain really moved in on Saturday afternoon. Went home after I got done teaching on Saturday and Luna was excited about going trick or treating on Sunday, but worried about the rain. To get her mind off the rain, we carved her pumpkin,
20 October, 2010: Kohaku’s First Halloween Costume
After a heated internal discussion with myself over whether to give Kohaku his first octopus costume or not, I gave in and purchased a non-cephalopodic costume for him – this year. We received his costume the other day, but haven’t had a chance to get him to try it on until now…. I am a

About
When I first came to Japan in 1998, I bought a 35mm Nikon with one of my first paychecks and took a ton of photos for the 3 years that I was in Matsuyama. I went back to the States in 2001, lived in Washington DC for the next 7 years, and didn’t really take many photos during that entire time… In 2008, my wife and I moved back to Japan and settled in the Yokohama area.
Shortly after arriving back here I was bitten by the bug, purchased a used Canon 40D and a couple of lenses to chronicle all that we see, feel, and experience here in Japan. Most of the photos I take are from the Tokyo/Yokohama areas, but intermingled are shots from other areas we travel to.
