A new place for us in our city

The place was built by the nation more ten years ago.

We know this place and got past here into other city sometimes.

But we had never visited here before now.

So this is first time visiting.

There are a lot of cherries.

We can not wait to be here next spring.

Colored Persimmon

This is the tree which has only one persimmon in our garden.

Now it color.

The colored persimmon is seasonal tradition like autumn leaves in Japan.

Goodbye my car!

We have gotten out this car yesterday.
I have driven this car for seventeen years.
The traveling performance is still excellent.

Final record running is 200,35.2Km.

Goal Achievement 200,000Km was 27/Jan./2009.

The most funny story was that a moss grows on the car.

It will be discarded vehicle.

Thanks my lovely car.

All strawberry field

I planted cucumber, radish and strawberry in the field this year.


But I have planted only strawberry in this area for next year.

The both are new strawberry rock piles.

There are more 400 seedlings in this area.

The goal will be 50Kg weight again next year.

I will another strawberry field for the goal.

AyeYai says to me "You are nutty as a fruitcake".

I think so!

Photography event early evening

We went to the place twice for photography event yesterday, early morning and evening

There are some peoples who enjoyed a grilled beef patty at the following place.

This picture is landscape of early morning.

A man was practicing Kendo which means Japanese art fencing in English.

The sunlight must be a great magician.

There is a big different landscape between them, morning and evening.

I like this sunset.

Cluster amaryllis in Equinoctial week

We had photography event at a hill in our city the early morning .

The red flower is Higan bana (彼岸花, Cluster amaryllis) in Japanese.

The white flower is also Cluster amaryllis.

Higan means Equinoctial week , and bana(hana) means flower in English.

The flower is most famous flower in Equinoctial week in Japan.

Be just eating

What a kind of hornworm is this?

We found out a homeworm on the aroid at our garden the morning.

It's big and beatiful hormworm.

He/She has an enormous appetite.

Don't eat the leaves.

We can not harvest the root of aroid.

Strawberry rock piles

These are new strawberry rock piles which I constructed last weekend.


This is the old strawberry rock pile which was built on this March.

I broke down it at first.

This is the first strawberry rock pile.

This is the second one.


This is third one.

I could not reach the goal this year.
I will make a new record of amount of strawberry yields, more 36.3kg .
