there are so many pressure points on the foot. the buck stops with me.

Recently I'm into self-massage called "ashitubo". I wonder Americans have a habit to push the "tubo" of the foot. ”tubo” is a pressure point. If only I roll the golf-ball by the foot, it works efficiently. But if I have some bad condition, the buck stops with me.=======today's lesson: the buck stops with me.責任は私にある。

Driving range

I love golf. How about you? This is a traditional facility of driving range. Narrow? or not? There were so many people from Sunday morning. Practicing is not so fun compared with the actual round. But practicing doesn't tell a lie absolutely. Daily efforts will be indicated in actual round some day. I trust these words and practice hard.

Japanese castle? No way.

This picture was taken in Tennoji, Osaka when I got off the train at the Tennoji Station. If you want to see that like a castle, you will disappoint shortly.

There is a large difference between real and fake.
