spring break moment: rising sun
From the 2nd floor coffee shop of the Best Western in Winona, Minnesota I had a great view of the odd Sugarloaf Bluff above . . . . . . and a man vigorously waving the Japanese flag below. I drew it in my notebook. Townsfolk were sweetly bidding farewell to a group of Japanese schoolkids and parents who had been in town for a week. Formal looking Japanese kids extended their hands for handshakes and got engulfted in beefy American-kid hugs. |
