They have performed through 20 countries and over 50 cities last 20 years.  I have translated their poem which Rebb helped me with it.

Rumiko Morimura and her father and friends


I wish you have a chance to see their stage just once.  It will make you smile whole week even you are really down.  Ohashi san and Rumiko san together, they create the world as though we are eating an excellent miso soup with many kinds of vegetables and tofu on a rainy day.

Writing Brushes



I like all writing utensils.  I especially love pen and brushes.  I just enjoy them.

 


I wondered if I would ever come to the point of using a large brush like above.



The largest brush I saw at the center of the first floor in the Landmark Tower.



Various ink bars, not chocolate.



One ink bar gives various shades as this.    




This ink was made after the ancient model.  The ink did not shine.




This ink has a glow.  It was made included mineral.

Oookagawa


Cherry blossoms are falling and falling along the road. 



On the way to Kamioooka Station, you'll meet this gorgeous tree.  The road is less crowded.

Koi are jumping.

Those fish are quite large.
