It will be the first time in three years that the event will be held.
It looks like they will reduce the number of participants and shift the start time.

Since I had more time at home in Corona, I thought I would take the opportunity to read and clean up the house, but I ended up not being able to do much because of the flurry of activity.

この、ターゲットにロックオンしてコントロールしていく過程になってから、全く話が通じなく、こちらの言っている事に全く耳を傾けてくれなくなるのって、ダークトライアドの人たち独特の特徴だ。
人が、やめて！と言っているのが伝わらない。普段はいい人の振りをしているけれど、一度ターゲットを定めると、タゲられた側が幾ら、やめてよ！近付かないで！と言っても全く通じない。
普通、もう距離を置きたいと思ったら、離れたり連絡しなくなったりするものだけれど
こういう人たちって共感力というものがなくて、こちらが幾ら嫌がっても、男女関係なくストーカーみたいに執着して放してくれない、離れてくれない。

また今、
あなたは公衆の面前でブッ飛んだ。何て恥知らずなの？とかってテキストしてきた。

本当に、本当に気持ち悪い。最悪なのは周りが彼女に同情して、私が彼女を虐めていると思っている事。

昔VOGAという雑誌がLAで発行されていた。その配達員が、毎回大量の雑誌を箱ごと何箱も廃棄していた。雑誌を作っていた人たちは全てを注ぐほど一所懸命だったはず。毎回そんな大量に廃棄されていただなんて想像だにしなかっただろう。
私が拾って、何軒かの日系マーケットの前に置けばよかったのだろうけど、毎回大きなダンプスターの中に捨てられていて拾えなかった。VOGAに連絡して言うのも告げ口みたいになってしまうと思って出来なかった。
早くに廃刊になってしまって、あの時何とか出来なかったんだろうかと今でも苦しく思い出してしまう。人が必死に頑張って築いた物を平気で台無しに出来る人たちがいる。

How many elderly people of Japanese descent are living in LA? We would be happy to be a place of rest and relaxation for the elderly who use the Koryu Hiroba. We think the eligibility is from 65 years old and up.

Even now, it's 98°F/37°C in the shade of my backyard. It's just so hot.

The other day, I had the chance to meet up with some Japanese friends who live in Gardena and Torrance, and

I was surprised to hear everyone talking about the temperature in “Celsius.”

Until then, I had believed that Japanese people here in the U.S. also talked about temperatures in “Fahrenheit.”

The reason for this is that for over 50 years, I’ve been following local events through the news on the major TV networks (CBS, NBC, ABC ）), so I’ve been getting my weather forecasts from those same channels.

This brings back memories, too.

It was back when I hadn’t even been here for many years yet

When I translate the lyrics, I start to feel an overwhelming sense of nostalgia for my hometown

Though it’s not quite the kind of hometown described in this poem...

The term “Bayou” in #1106 refers to the following location:

https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%90%E3%82%A4% E3%83%A6%E3%83%BC_(%E5%9C%B0%E5%BD%A2)

It also sounds like a song in which someone who has moved to the city longs for their hometown.

I was born and raised on the eastern outskirts of Tokyo. I was born about a year before the （ End of the War ） Commemoration Day.

Back when I was a child, the eastern side was a residential area, but toward the city center, fields and farmland stretched as far as the eye could see.

So, on sunny evenings, I used to see a small silhouette of Mount Fuji in the direction of true west.

When I hear this song, it somehow reminds me of my hometown—back when I used to catch medaka and crayfish in the irrigation ditches among the fields and farmland.

Lately, here in the San Fernando Valley where I live,

we’ve been having a string of days where the temperature is approaching 100°F (38°C). It’s extremely hot.

As a result, if I go for a walk around the neighborhood for about an hour, I end up completely drenched.

I wonder what it’s like in the Gardena/Torrance area, where many Japanese people live.

Since it’s an area where sea breezes blow in, the temperature is probably about 10 ～ to 20°F lower.

Those of you who have crossed the ocean to come here to Los Angeles and Japan
are always concerned about something related to your travel between Los Angeles and Japan.

If you have anything to say or questions, please feel free to write.
I'll try to write "something" as well.

Example ：
What means do you use to call when you return to Japan?

Which seat on the plane do you prefer, Aisle or Window, front, back,

Which airline do you think has the best food?

Which mode of transportation do you use to get to the local area?

and so on and so on

This is Baikinman. For some reason—perhaps a mix-up—I haven't been able to post my writings lately.

I believe it started around 2009—excluding the pandemic period—and whenever I travel to Japan once a year, I walk the Shikoku 88 Temple Pilgrimage, dividing the full circuit into roughly one-quarter sections and completing about two and a half circuits so far.

To be continued...

I haven't traveled to Japan yet this year.

Did I go last year? My memory isn't so clear—my dementia is getting worse.

I remember meeting up with four friends from junior high school at the ticket gates of Kunitachi Station on the Chuo Line in Tokyo

and going to a nearby restaurant.

According to K, who organized the trip, he tried calling everyone on the list from the old class reunion roster, but

either most of them had changed their phone numbers or those numbers were no longer in use,

so he couldn’t reach anyone. Well, it can’t be helped—we’re all over 80, after all.

I thanked K for all his hard work.

When you’re over 80, even if you’re still alive, you’re practically an alien—it’s so sad...

＞ The ticket gates at Kunitachi Station on the Chuo Line in Tokyo

That said, I imagine many of you don’t know exactly where “Kunitachi Station on the Chuo Line” is located in Tokyo.

To begin with, people usually read “Kokuritsu” as “kokuritsu,” right? But it’s actually pronounced “Kunitachi.”

Even I, who was born and raised on the eastern outskirts of Tokyo, used to pronounce it “kokuritsu” until around middle school.

Sorry for the pointless comment.

When it comes to high school days, the Kisarazu High Festival is definitely the highlight.

Why don't we share our memories of the Kisarazu High Festival?
