Hi Ichiro-sensei! First time in 10+ years that I didn’t go to the festival. It felt weird but it was a nice vacation from the usual Labor Day weekend. Sounds like you were really busy and had a lot of fun too. 🙂 Wow, I would’ve loved to have been at the jam session w/ Seibun-sensei and Hirara. Must’ve been awesome! Miss jamming with you guys too. 😦
