This site serves as our portal to the world. We are a young, middle-aged
couple who live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest region of the United States.
I have lived in eastern Washington State most of my life; however, my wife is a
native of Kyoto, Japan.
The Interests link leads to a brief synopsis of current activities
that keep our lives full and vibrant. Also on this page, I recommend some books
that I enjoyed reading.
We enjoy travel and, as Americans, consider ourselves world citizens. While
traveling I enjoy
taking photographs; therefore, the Photo Album contains
an eclectic assortment of pictures, with an emphasis on the Kyoto, Japan area. Additionally, I
have included photos from the infamous destructive Spokane, Washington November 1996 Ice
Storm. We hope that you enjoy
them.
Under Favorites you will find links that amuse, astound,
entertain, educate, provoke thought, furnish information, and provide
services.
Before you leave our site, please take a moment and sign our Guest
Book. We enjoy reading your comments.
At an early age I became an enthusiast of Japanese culture. I found that
visiting Japan soothes the soul and rejuvenates the spirit. We hope that
browsing this site brings
to you, in some small measure, a similar experience. Thank you for visiting.
