Footy taking a back seat

Now, it takes a lot for me to forget about footy. But over the last few days I've forgotten to set up my fantasy footy team for this season, so I'll loose points this weekend (bummer) and I've forgotten to check on City's poor start to the season (bonus?). The reason? Why, the Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennial.

After work on Thursday and Friday, and all day yesterday and today, Keiko and I have been travelling around Tokamachi hunting for works of art and stamping our record card. There has been lots of good pieces, some not so good and a few fantastic pieces that have had me captivated. I've taken photos of all the ones I've seen, so I'll choose the best of each art piece and make somekind of online record card.

In the meantime, if you're in the area and see a little yellow sign, pull over and take a look. You might be amazed by what you see!
