Off to Onagawa

I'm currently posting from the nightbus to Sendai. Tomorrow morning
I'll bus to Ishinomaki and then north to Onagawa to meet up with my
friend to volunteer in the tsunami region.

I'll be there for five days, doing whatever the Volunteer Center tells
me. It's quite safe, just very hot now and a lot of taxing work, so
I'll be guzzling lots of water. I'm extremely excited to do this, as
I've been wanting to and trying to go for four months. Happily, I'll
also be able to give the money my art journal raised over to the town
in person--153,000 yen($1930)!

I'll be mostly out of touch, though checking email occasionally. There
will absolutely be a blog post forthcoming at the end of it.

What a way to close out my time in Japan...hope you are all well.
