Hi, and Kyoto
15 years ago
Are there any furries in Kyoto, Nara, or Kansai?
In other news:
Sorry I haven't been uploading much art in the last few months. Furry art is essentially where I spend surplus time, energy, and patience, all of which I have none at the moment. This what happens when you're mixing full time employment, research, and making travel plans usually in the same day. Art is happening though; two pieces were started last week (one a commission). Additionally, I've been tweaking with a mural that's a year or two in the making.
The only con I might make in the next year will be Furfright, although this usually depends on how things are going at school.
I'm up in Reno, Nevada for a few weeks doing some work and taking in Northern Nevada again. I feel at home once I smell that sweet nutty odor of wet sagebrush under the summer thunderstorms here. Right now, at night, it smells more like wet reeds. The loudest sound outside are the frogs in a nearby creek. What's interesting is they all quiet down by midnight. It's still a bit cold of the coyotes still. Each night the thunderstorms dissolve into this high mist that diffuses a waxing moon as it rises from the desert side of town - heading toward the Sierra side. I love Nevada.
I bet I could tell which city I'm in based on smell by now.

FA+

I look forward to spending a few days or weeks up at Tahoe this summer, if I have the chance. And, in addition to hiking Mt. Rose again, I'd love to hike Mt. Talack.
Enjoy the Nevada desert area... must be blooming with all the rain from thunderstorms.

where else? hawthorn, thorn, shirz, nolan, jessup (the last to, real ghost towns, not touted up for tourists like body. also not much there, unless you're a rock hound)
battle mountain, biowowi (i know i'm not spelling that right), winimucca (and i know where sera's actually burried, even though it's pretty much unmarked, her ghost said hi when i took a picture of the place, having no idea what it was at the time i took the picture and only finding out later, oh yah, and that isn't anywhere near the town, or any town, actually), carson, of course, used to shop there when we lived at norden, even though truckee was a lot closer, but also more expensive, incline (aka "bonanza"), verdi (the usual border crossing on i-80), standish, (was on the old modoc line, where it crossed the old w.p., all u.p. now)
its been more then 30 years since i've been to most of those places though, except reno, been there 4 or 5 times in the last ten years. but 40 years ago i lived in reno for a couple of years.
oh yah, tonopah and basalt, been down that way too.
mostly camped out in the back of a pickup behind a sage brush most of those trips.
I'm sure there are. And they probably don't read FA. :)
