I was up in Miyagi prefecture shoveling tsunami gunk and muck for a while.
I am back at home busy with Spring. My indigo seedlings will need transplanted to the field next week. I have 3000 baby silkworms who need constant feeding and care.
My tea harvest starts next week. The carpentry work upstairs has almost ground to a halt while weeding and cutting grass at the mulberry field and cleaning up the garden and yard are priorities. I put in a few new glass windows today so that I don't get too far away from the renovations.
My students are all working away at indigo and weaving projects. My precious Mac G5 needed a new hard drive and internal disk player. She was down for a month and now back up and ready to cooperate with getting my blog gears engaged.
Thank you to all who sent their kind words of encouragement since the tsunami and nuclear accident. They were much appreciated.

Hi Bryan, I'm glad you are back. It must have been hard seeing what's left after the tsunami. I'm leaving for Japan with the Silk Study tour in a week time. Can't hardly wait! - Hugs Nat

glad you are back at your farm. our late spring and high water has slowed down farm work here. those look like hungry babies, and they'll get hungrier. in the photo you look resigned. and weary. japan is in my thoughts and heart.
