Hello everyone! How are you doing during this hot summer? Did you find a way to stay cool? I spent a lot of time with my kids in the pool this year. It really worked to cool us down!
I was surprised to hear the news that a big earthquake may hit Japan soon. I fell Japan has had enough natural disasters during our lifetime! The Great Hanshin Earthquake in Hyogo in 1995, The Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami, and even the Noto Earthquake this year! But the news about a possible major earthquake made me want to do a little research. I found out that Japan has had some huge earthquakes historically. The Great Kanto Earthquake in 1923 killed more than 100,000 people. Before that, there were major earthquakes in 1896, 1891, 1854-55, 1847, and it seems every 70-80 years throughout history. Being from California, I’m used to earthquakes, but I hope the next big earthquake doesn’t hit us too soon! I feel like we need a break from natural disasters for a while.
Congratulations to the Taisha High School baseball team! They played so well! My wife graduated from Taisha High School, so she was really excited. It was the first time I saw her get excited about sports! Did you go to Koshien to watch them?
