"…Living only for the moment, turning our full attention to the pleasures of the moon, the snow, the cherry blossoms and the maple leaves; singing songs, drinking wine, diverting ourselves just floating, floating….refusing to be disheartened, like a gourd floating along with the river current; this is what we call the floating world…” Asai Ryoi, in Ukiyo Monogatari (Tales of the Floating World, 1661)

Sunday...
Slept late. Woke up. Showered. Drank coffee. Off to Donner Lake this morning, then probably back to Kings Beach (Lake Tahoe) for lunch with my friends. The trip has been excellent.
