\nas i was driving back from the airport in hawaii, i must have drove by 5
\nplaygrounds. it’s pretty much all over the place. it brought back the
\nshocking memories of the destroyed playgrounds i witnessed in japan.
\ncars, houses, boats, and trees smashing the place where kids once
\ngathered. then it came to my mind. why not build a playground or
\nplaygrounds in japan? why not put a happy place back in the towns that
\nwere totally destroyed? why not put a smile back on the traumatized
\nkids face?
\nso here is my plan for mission 4 or 5. build a playground. when we
\nwere driving through the most devastated places in oshika hanto, i
\nhaven’t seen one playground in a town that survived. i haven’t seen
\nkids outside playing. why? because there was no place to play. all
\nthe kids pretty much left their town, but when they come back to visit,
\na colorful bright playground would be a nice warm homecoming.
\nso i’m calling out to people that want to help on this project. we can
\neither order one, buy one, or build one. i need advise. first, hey
\nmatsu, can you call kobochihama and ask them if there is a place we can
\nput one? and call ryoko-san and ask if there is an elementary school
\nthat needs a new playground. second, can we build one in 2 days? is
\nthere a carpenter that can volunteer his or her time? if not, where can
\nwe buy one from? third, where can we get the wood and supplies from? i
\ngot my hammer and nails ready!
\ni’m getting excited thinking about mission 4 that will happen in june or
\njuly. this is a big project that i’m looking forward too. if you have
\nany ideas or advise, please email me. let’s make it happen for the kids!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
