Unboxing my new Starter Set of The One Ring. (Now some very personal blogging that will only interest a few of you) Last week I wrote about the fantasy hole I have been in. Contributing to this is the fact that we are also in a Table Top Role Playing Game hole as well. I have been playing TTRPGs with the same group since 2013. We started together after a big Board Game Night where we organized two simultaneous sessions of The Red Box to introduce people to tabletop gaming.
I love taking people into our nearby forest and walking around the bend and saying “Hey look over there 👉 “
Dentist in the morning. Haircut in the afternoon (sat there with a frozen jaw 😬). Now it is evening and I am kicking back with a gold drink and a good book #amreading
Spent the evening at the Richmond Night Market 🍡🍧🧋🥡🍢🌮

As former remote island residents ourselves, we’ve been keeping an eye on the ongoing earthquake activity and evacuations in the Tokara Island chain centered on Akusekijima 悪石島 or “Evil Rock Island” 😳 #japan #earthquake
