We went on a short hike to pick blueberry. Along the Granite Tors trail, we found bunch of berries crowded together on the ground as exactly Brooke-chan, a wife of Masa-san, told to us. While Pug-san were picking, I enjoyed taking a nap under summer sunshine. I think she picked over 1 gallons of berries during two hours. Although the berries look a little bit late to pick - actually they remind me of raisin -, Pug- san seems to be satisfied.

I am now living in a new apartment owned by "Masa-san", one of my close Japanese friends. He bought this house recently and offered us (Pug-san, Momo-chan and I) to stay when I had been in Japan. In Fairbanks, it is difficult to find a cozy apartment that allows you to live with some kind of pets like dogs and cats - Fish and small reptiles are fine, I believe -. So, his offer was indeed a timely offer, actually it was even more, a heaven-sent offer. Because I had to fly to some local places immediately after I arrived in Fairbanks, I hadn't had enough time to put our house in order. Only recently, we are done. Now we are spending fully relaxed time.
