Greetings! Thank you so much for visiting my blogs and leaving messages. I do not know if I fit in well here as I am more of an agnostic hedonist than anything else! But I'm certainly a lover of nature and better environment. I do not know your nationality, but you might be interested to learn that down here in Shizuoka (where it does not snow unfortunately, although Rikmatz would be impressed by some of our storms) we look after our own cricket ground along the Abe River by ourselves, going as far as clearing all the jungle around it. Our ground golf playing neighbours have been so impressed that they followed our advice and let grass grow on their skin ground. Problem is that outsiders are trying to steal the use of both grounds all the time, believing the City is solely responsible for the improved environment...sigh... Cheers and looking forward to reading your posts! Robert-Gilles Dear Zen!

I brought one after the big earthquake here in, hmm 1989. Never used it. Sold it about 2 years ago. Although I may get just a small one to use on the boat. Heheh always the case, isn’t.

Turns out that that day/night we lost power for 12 hours. However the next day was nice to watch and listen to the rain. I agree with that. Turns out that that day/night we lost power for 12 hours.
