by name

i was just enlightened in a delightful way that if you translate my name into japanese (after a decade there it's funny i never found this one) it's:

あす（明日）とぅ（登）れっど(赤）
it's a treasure. it means "Tomorrow climb with red"
and so as the days begin to count down towards the next mountain, Hua-shan, I have this new focus. an absurd new drive to paint the next mountain red.
