Well! It's been quite some time since I've updated this blog huh. There's been butt-loads of work and new people around here, and it's quite a lot to deal with, this has just slipped my mind. Regardless, I will be easier to update from now on, since things are rolling more smoothly now and the big dates (14 college student stay and harvest festival) are going to pass by.
There are many stories to tell and far too many pictures to post. Most are of no significance (cats yowling outside my tent, accidentally taking the hardest path strait up koyodai from the Saiko lake side, lots of sweating...) but the farm events will probably do.
Pumpkin!! They just sort of popped up in the potato field (formerly sheep pen, might explain why) and kind-of took over a little. We've got an even bigger and brighter one out there, but Na-chan wants to save it for the festival. :)
Then there's this little guy! I was just sitting around 6:30am just putzing away at the computer when, WHAMO, bam into the glass. I don't know how I knew it was a bird but lo and behold, this little guy sat on the concrete for ten minutes or so catching his breath (more likely brains). I was able to get real close too. First wildlife that I've seen so close too. I can never catch those mythical boars that eat up our eggplants and zuchinni. :/
Today actually we're expecting 14 Japanese college students for a few days. Oh boy. I have no idea which college or why they're coming here, but I suppose it's more about seeing the farm and helping out, maybe like a field trip. I'll find out soon I suppose. They're arriving at 2:00pm.
Oh! It's lunchtime. So hungry. I'll post again at the end of the week no doubt. I'm expecting a lot of cooking and cleaning in the next two days.
All the best,
~Kira
