Ichiyo Show Final Days

Today begins the third and last weekend. 
We have had 2 typhoons and a couple hundred visitors, good visitors, good friends.  Yesterday the director from the Higuchi Ichio Memorial Museum visited.  I wonder what she thought.  Whatever it was, she did not say.
 
It was a lot of fun to put it all together, to explore Ichiyo's life through her diaries, and then with my paint.
 
 
I wonder who will visit today on this chilly last Saturday day of the show, or tomorrow on the last  Sunday in the rain.  It is supposed to rain tomorrow;  perhaps it will be a heavy Kurosawa rain, and the exhibition will end like the Seven Samurai - swordplay, and rolling in the mud; Great heroes fall, evil is vanquished, a few survive, and the hard working, but cheerful farmers inherit the earth. One can only hope.
