Camping Along the North Santiam
From Fishermen's Bend |
I spent a lot of time talking with my friend Cary Takara who, upon seeing me and the boys eating rice that we had brought with us for dinner, commented "You are more Japanese than me." I tried conversing in Japanese with Cary's youngest son, but he laughed uncontrollably at the idea that a gaijin was speaking some pretty good Japanese (Cary and his wife are both 100% Japanese). Their kids are fluent in both Japanese and English--a really cool skill that I wish my kids had.
I really feel for Aaron's future wife; the boy moves around so much during his sleep that it is impossible to get any meaningful rest.
Perhaps it was a combination going to bed late and waking up too early, but both boys fell asleep in the car on the way home from Fred Meyer several hours after coming home.
