June 29th Fri. ‐ Kicked Out From Kobe

It suddenly got hot this afternoon.

It's still cool in the night and morning so this heat is just sudden.

I was trying to attend Kobe marathon held in November but I got a mail that told I was out for the lottery.

I'm disappointed but I cannot understand they pick runners by lottery.

Communism shouldn't be applied to any sport.

They should have better system to pick runners like taking past race data.

Anyway, we are the nationals who love marathon maybe most in the world.

They should take everyone who wants to be there and everyone in our society should take the cost.

June 28th Thur. ‐ Dead Thursday

It's getting in the middle of rainy seoson.

But it's half sunny and half cloudy this afternoon.

A little windy but the wind is dry and even cool.

Business is just dead.

I feel Thursday is not good lately.

I remember a few dead Thursday especially in the day.

Anyway, all I can do is just to bear sitting behind the wheel.

June 27th Wed. - Silk Tree

This is a silk tree I cherished so much.

It's cut once in the winter, then I realized how much I loved the tree.

I gave up at that time and I felt down like I couldn't sleep a few nights.

But unbelievably, this new shoot began to glow.

I was so glad that I realized that the life is so strong, stronger than I've ever thought in my life.

And life is beautiful.

But this shoot, even with the whole root, was cut again.

I just cannot think anything right now...

June 19th Tues. - Typhoon Is Gone?

It'd been forcasted that typhoon would hit this Kansai area tonight.

It'd been hard rain this morning and afternoon, and the rain should be harder at night as typhoon got closer.

And the night comes ...

It's still raining but so gently like typhoon would almost be gone.

Everybody went home earlier not to get wet.

What hit this area and the station?

Yes, silence does.

I have to bear sitting in the cab all night in the silence tonight.

June 18th Mon - His First Game

It's so humid this afternoon.

It was a beautiful shiny Sunday after the rain started from Friday.

And yesterday was the day that my son played first football game in his life.

He had been very excited after the game as he realized he was really in there.

I was so excited too feeling I could share the great moment with him.

I feel I gotta do something ...

I keep thinking about that.

It's a good Monday.

I wanna make 30 grand or more.

June 7th Thur. ‐ An Warm Day

It's another warm afternoon.

Temp in my cab is surging up to 34 degree now.

I turned off the engine and opened all the windows so let natural air in here.

So far, it seems working.

I get cool wind as it's still deadly 34 in here.

All right, it's not too bad to get sweat as long as I wouldn't release filthy smell when someone jumped in here.

Business goes as usual.

June 4th Mon - Dull Afternoon

It's a cloudy start of the week.

It was warm but we still have a couple weeks to get wetty and humid seoson as now it's getting a little cool after the sun got hidden behind the clouds.

I've been exhausted after volunteer work at a vineyard yesterday.

I got a little hit this afternoon to Eitakuji temple, metered about 6 thousand.

June 1st Fri. ‐ Getting Better

It's another warm day.

It's been sunny in the morning but this photo shows dark clouds now.

It might be, and I hope it will be, RAIN.

It makes our business better and the air cooler.

It was dead slow yesterday, but at night it got better.

It's dead slow today again.

But take it easy, it will get pickin up.
