The wisteria at the Jindai Botanical Park is at its best. It looks so photogenic!

They have a family buffet plan for Christmas. It's nice to have a family Christmas dinner at a hotel ！.

There will be a stamp rally at more than 40 locations in Chofu City.
It seems that if you collect stamps, you can get goods from Chofu Ekimae Shopping Street.

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.

非常に懐かしいヒット曲が出てきました。

わたしがアメリカに＞ロサンジェルス 初めて来た頃ヒットした曲で、これを聴くとあの頃を懐かしく思い出します。

あの頃のメンバーも爺さんになっているんですねぇ。

It's just too overpriced to sell ？ 100,000 mile 30 series at that price.

Unlike the days when the only hybrid was the Prius, today
there are a variety of hybrid cars on the market, so
you don't have to choose a Prius to choose another hybrid car.

But Porsche is different. Hybrid is the lowest and maintenance cost is absurdly high

Other German luxury cars also have high maintenance cost
Wealthy people may flirt with Benz, Porsche, etc. for a while, but eventually they settle down with Lexus when they get old.
People who have enough money and don't mind the price end up with Lexus ～ It is best to change luxury cars in 3 years

Korean cars look cheap but they are copies and you can't find the soul of technology like Japanese cars
Sometimes people are fooled by the price and the glance, but I think I am not the only one. Sometimes there are people who are fooled by the price, but they are often people with low IQ.

正規Toyota Dealerでプリウス購入しました。
定期検査とオイルチェンジの際、実際にプリウス所有のメカの方は、プリウスは日本製だから購入したそうです。
一時期リコールのパーツがないため、新品は販売していなかったときもあり、カムリハイブリッドを勧められましたが、前方スポイラーにセンサーがなく(オプション購入)、やはりプリウスにしました。満タンで約450マイル走破は財布に優しいですね。
