Halloween and Harvest time   

Happy Fall to everyone!
Fall is my favorite time of year. In addition to me having my birthday this last month, the leaves have started to turn, changing to red, yellow and brown. I went on a short trip to Shikoku, where they are not yet able to enjoy this spectacular transition. As winter draws nearer and nearer, and we prepare for shorter and colder days, it is a great time to thank our elders and celebrate the harvest and all the abundance the season offers us. Many fruits and vegetables are gathered and we sing the songs of thanksgiving. I recommend enjoying from fresh salmon, apples, kabocha or your favorite food and truly savor the bounty that Hokkaido provides. As usual, I haven't figured out what I will be for Halloween, and will probably decide at the last minute... Maybe I will gather plastic bags and make a suit out of them... Now that would be a great idea for a Manga super hero, no? PLASTIC BAG MAN! I hope that your season is filled with music and joyful celebration.
