Blue eyes


 This lady welcomed me warmly the other day, clutching my hand saying I was the first foreigner she had ever greeted.  "Finally," she murmured.  I was struck by both her eyes and her joy (and thankfully not her walking stick).   Thank you for brightening my day, nyogokuru (grandmother).

  1. Her "look" is fascinating! Quite artistic. If you ever see her again with that shirt on, could you take another picture of her? I would love to know if that's her name, and what the rest of it looks like. Or maybe she got it at a thrift shop (if they have those there?) Good job Miles!
    Love, Patti

  2. I guess anytime I comment on a google blob I am "Mom"? I should have called myself "Mom-WI" hey?
