Thanks Shroomer
You reminded me the women I met on the first JMT. She taught me what
"deer", "snake", etc is, as like my mom.

BTW, I don't know whether I can bake pizza as usual, but I will do my
best.

> This is a last minute invitation to any hikers who may not have see my

> Francisco Bay Area this coming Monday, 7-29-13. We're putting together a
> BBQ at my place so that folks can get to meet our illustrious Japanese JMT
> enthusiast, Yoshihiro Murakami.
>
> He's a clinical psych professor in Japan who spends every summer hiking our
> own beloved John Muir Trail and he's a regular member of the PCTL. He
> claims the weather is better in California than he gets in Japan where
> occasional typhoons take the place of our deep spring snow and swollen
> streams for adding a bit of danger to a hike. But besides this, he's a
> great guy and a terrific hiker. After many publications in his chosen
> field of study in Japan, namely psychology, he's just published his first
> book on backpacking and this year I've got him roped into seeing a bit more
> of the West, the Wild West as it were. He'll be backpacking with me and
> friends in the Wind River Range and Glacier NP. He may not find the
> weather as sweet as we have it in CA, but those mtns are incredible.

> So, if you're interested in meeting Yoshihiro and the other hikers already
> coming, and sampling some of his famous pizza, or feasting on my smoked
> ribs, grilled chicken or tofu, or sampling "John Muir Wine," give me a note
> off line and I'll send you directions. The house will be open anytime
> after 1pm with a potluck dinner at 4pm.
>
> The John Muir National Historic Site is across the street so if you want to
> add a visit to the birthplace of many of our National Parks, come early as
> they close at 5pm. Hiking is also easy as the Bay Ridge Trail dips down
> off the ridge at the Muir House. If it's hot, bring a swim suit as the
> pool is a great cool down after a ridge hike.
>
> On Wednesday, 7-31-13, Yoshihiro and I will be driving up to the PCT where
> it crosses Hwy 80 north of Lake Tahoe and there's room in the van for any
> hikers who need a lift back to trail.
>
> Give me a holler if any of this works for you.
