And the last of the “last of” entries that mark this section of the ii News… last night was my last bujutsu class with Jackson and company. It was a great class, and I as with all of the things that are being interrupted indefinitely by this move to Calgary, it’s a disappointment.
It was almost ten years ago, not long after moving out to Sooke, that I found Jackson’s class and started attending. There were interruptions in the classes as it moved from location to location without a permanent dojo, and then a long interruption when Jackson headed off to Afghanistan. Just this month, the Ookami Gakko (school) took up its new home in Jackson’s garage, and that was a great change. With my foot doing well, and the kids not going to CBK, I managed to attend a number of classes this month. The other current students (Robin and Shannon) are lots of fun and I really enjoyed the month.
I’m pissed that I didn’t get the diagnosis on my foot for a year: I missed out on a lot of fun, even if it did get me on my bike, which I enjoy.
Here’s a picture Michelle took of the group:
