can't believe our school days are over...

came back from san diego. the weather is so right here. instead of showing up at motorcycle swap meet in long beach, we went to the regular swap meet at nearby college parking.

shinya & mr.falcon
they were so delighted to walk through
the american college campus.
they asked me "do we look like some students?"
ah, no. not really...

近所の短大の駐車場でやっているスワップミートへ行くのに
キャンパスを横切る木村氏とN美くん。
これがアメリカンキャンパスか~などと感激しながら歩いているそのお姿、
完璧に浮いてますがね。

 they blend right in with this scene
then on campus.

やっぱりこっちの方がしっくりくるね。

looking at tools in a serious attitude.

超真剣にツールを見るお二人。

i found these sanding discs called 
"takumashii" probably the literal translation 
of a japanese term strong or tough.
but sounds so not right to put on sanding discs.
oh, well.

「タクマシイ」ブランドのサンディング・ディスク。
気持ちは分かるけど、たくましいって・・・タクマシン、あ、言っちゃった。

had an happy ending as always.

出ました、伝染病「箱買いシンドローム」。
こちらはN美くんお買い上げの箱。
少し大人ぶって「N美くん買ったらいいよ、これ」
などと余裕を見せる木村氏でありました。

Yes, I am a tool box/filing cabinet nerd myself.

Speaking of school, we should make a field trip to the Kennedy plant!
