Japanese Warriors

from a small book with fascinating illustrations.  I know I would be terrified if this guy came after me!  He looks fierce and strangely elegant at the same time.  Not practical, maybe, but can't you see fashions based on him striding down a runway?

Japan's Ancient Armour

Found an interesting stack of these at an estate sale.  By these, I mean little tourist books from Japan published right after WWII.  I'd say they were trying to erase the really bad, bad image the Japanese had during the war.  The booklets are very well made and since hubby has lost his job, I am doing my best to up my ebay sales, make money any way I can.  Saving is good and we pinch every penny, but there needs to be a bit coming in also.

So, please forbear with me.

We have brilliant sunshine today.  Yesterday evening I went out to pull weeds for the rabbits and got thoroughly nailed on the hand by two large fireants.  Today the bites have blistered up a little more than usual.  Packed a lot of punch for such tiny creatures.
