RIP (literally) my small greenhouse.

I built it last summer over a 4 x 8 bed. Carefully removed the snow over the winter but it snowed and rained a lot during our trip to Japan and it could not handle the weight.

My sleep patterns before, during, and after our trip to Japan. Yeah, return #jetlag has been bad and it’s been the same for my wife. Part of the reason might be because the weather has been especially nasty since our return and we’ve been unable to spend much time outside in the sun. There are four nights without data because I wasn’t wearing my Apple Watch, flying across the international date line or because I didn’t sleep at all during our return flights.

I saw a #cat in Japan that immediately reminded me of Maru who used to be the most famous feline on YouTube. I was a bit anxious about checking him out, it’s been so long he’d probably be dead by now…

But no, he’s still doing videos at 18. And the cat-distribution-system gave him a couple of sisters.

This made me happy.

When in #Tokyo, don’t limit yourselves to what is on street level. There are many treasures in the upper levels and, especially, under the streets. For example, the area around our Ginza hotel had little of interest to us…until we found out it was next to an underground mall with an acceptable number of dining options.
