Thanks Mae

Hi Tam, I was not able to comment on your August 10th blog… so here is my comment re your sweet ride:


Love your sweet ride Tam! What a beautiful and peaceful life you have in Japan... Love ya! Mae


Mae, your comment comes at an interesting time...


It's Aug. 15 and Obon in Japan. This is the time when people who have died are remembered.

It is also the date when Emperor Hirohito surrendered after two atomic bombs (Aug. 6 and Aug.9) were dropped on Japan and the Soviet Union attacked the Japanese colony in Manchuria (Manchukuo) on Aug. 9 in 1945.


These were really sad times.

There is peace in the land again.

Mae, thanks for reminding me how lucky I am to have this beautiful and peaceful life in Japan.

I love you too.
