One of two dressed-up fox statues guarding an Inari shrine just outside of Misawa. Inari is the Shinto god/goddess of agriculture. Corey and I drove out to see the shrine/park today (and it was freeeezing).

Day 26
My meal-planning organization needs updating. Every week I sit down to a stack of papers, lists of my favorite recipes, lists of new things I want to try, and my blog reader for new inspiration. It's all over the place and it's annoying. But it works, so I'll probably keep doing it the way I have been...

Day 22 and 23
Uhh, so I maaay have forgotten to take a picture yesterday. Oops. I guess I was too absorbed in reading about photography to actually do any myself.
So I'll even it out with 2 pictures from today- one of each of us while snowboarding at Appi (I'm concealing a pile of books under my jacket, not a giant pregnant belly or gut, just so there's no confusion).

Day 14
Sorry for the most boring picture in the history of time, but it was the only one I ended up taking today. It's our garage door stuck to the ground at 5:30am when Corey was trying to leave for work. Ten minutes of chipping away ice with a screwdriver and a pot of boiling water later, we got it to open.

My Project 365
Welcome to my Project 365 blog (yes, yet another blog)!
I know these have been around for a while now, but I'm starting my year-long photo documentary blog after being inspired by the examples of several of my friends who have been doing their own over the past few months with great success (namely Stefanie at Stefanie's Project 365 Stories, who's been at it for almost a year and who's "blogumentary" has been so fun to keep up with).
I figure this is as good a year as any to do one of these, what with being in Japan and having lots of beautiful and interesting subjects to take pictures of. In the end I hope to have a visual record of a full year of my life- the big, the small, the exciting, the mundane, the good and the ugly. This time we have in Japan is something I really cherish, and I want to have as much photographic evidence of it as possible to look back on someday.
I also hope this will help me improve my picture-taking abilities since it will force me to use my camera every day. I could use a dose of creative energy in my life, and I'm sure that will be become necessary as I run out of things to take pictures of. Corey and I want to buy a fancy camera at some point, but not before we know what to do with it; hopefully this will be good preparation!
So here we go- a picture every day! I can't promise I'll actually POST the pictures I take daily, but I'll at least catch up every few days so I don't get too far behind.
Should be interesting!
