Cave art, 2021. 4/6. Jul-Aug

As hard as it may be to believe, this is in Tokyo.

Yamanashi

Venison.  It's what's for dinner.

Such a beautiful area around Bandai in Fukushima

Just south of Daibosatsurei in Yamanashi

Early in the year, when I was diagnosed with cancer was learning that I'd be undergoing surgery, I made a promise to myself to climb Fuji before the end of the year.  

It wasn't as much a Herculean task as I thought, evidently.  Before my operation in June, I asked my surgeon if he thought it would be possible for me to climb it after the surgery.  He said "No.  The climbing season doesn't start until July.  You'll have to wait until then."

Back to Saitama to Mt Ryokami

If you want to see something gross, look at the post of this trip that started and ended at Lake Miyagase.  You can see leeches sucking the blood out of me.

This is only about 2 or 3 miles from home.

Greetings spelunkers of all ages, shapes and sizes.  

This past year was a great one for art on the walls of my mancave and I want to share some of it with you.  I have way too many pictures to put into one post so I've concluded to break it up into six separate posts covering 2 months in each.  I hope you enjoy them.  I certainly enjoyed taking them.
