September 26

Reading...

When we began isolating in March, I resolved to read as much as I could and watch as little TV as possible.
These are just the books on Japanese Architecture I read. Also read about twenty other books in several other genres.

Glad you did this, Walter instead of the TV. Japanese culture is so interesting and those architecture books must have been fascinating. V

I love the idea of settling down with a book - but it doesn't happen - too much time on the computer :(

Nirvan Hope		27-Sep-2020 01:04
The Japanese aesthetic is so appealing - as is the time to do so much reading!

You would enjoy this place not so far from here I live. It is architectural museum with many old houses and shops etc. relocated and rebuilt in a park near Tokyo https://www.tatemonoen.jp/english/

I do love the Japanese minimalistic style. You have certainly taken advantage of this situation well Walter. V

Wow, I'm impressed Walter ... I remember visiting the Byodo Temple in Hawaii, a replica of a temple in Japan ... and I was surprised to learn that they didn't use a single nail in its construction, amazing. I too should read a book, haven't done so in years with the Internet!
