"…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)

Glad To Be Home
It's always good to come home after traveling. There is a great comfort in slipping into your own bed and sleeping on your own pillow. This return was no different. I was gone for the last ten days or so on a trip to South Dakota to visit family. It passed fairly quickly and it went fairly smoothly and I am glad to be home.
