I am so excited. Last night I was driving home with my window down and I heard the first frog calls of spring. As Cindi knows, this makes me very happy. I am sure the amagaeru (rain frog pictured to the left - not my own pic) will be here in the next rainfall. Note : a Japanese man told me Japanese people and foreign people have different ears. He said that insect noises are just that, noise to us, but the sounds of lovely nature to Japanese. I didn't agree with him but I laughed just the same. He went on to explain how Japanese are at one with nature.

it's comments like that that drive me crazy. Especially when they tell me I'm crazy because I like to sit by the stream by my house and pretend it's a babbling brook :)
Happy Frogs Ellen! They are here in Ato and it should be just a matter of time before they reach you down south
I had a lizzardy thing on my window last night! As long my mental squirrel thing doesnt come back, I don't mind!
