Our art gallery 022 （画廊としての本棚）

Our daughter drew her own trumpet which she played in the brass band club of her junior high school.


We had never heard her playing. There is no doubt that she was good at playing it due to my daughter.

Cycad （蘇鉄）

"蘇鉄", we pronounce it "Sotetsu".

The both pictures are for one and the same Cycad.

Left one is a very recent photograph, Right one was taken a picture on the winter of 2001.

If I'm correct, the Cycad was transplanted to the place of left picture from right one place five years ago.

How big it is growing for seven years!!!

Leaved my car in the Open （野ざらし）

This is my car which I drive for fifteen years.
At the same time, my wife's car is two years old.

There is no roof. It's exactly made up car. （雪化粧）
Now my car is running 191,000 Km. I want to drive more 200,0000Km.
Keep in there!!!!!!!!

Cosmetic Snowing （雪化粧）

Today is snowing, it is covering everything as cosmetic item which can change looks and appearance of all.
We say that "雪景色" in Japanese and pronouns it "Yuki Geshiki". 雪 (Yuki) means Snow and 景色 (Geshiki) means View.





Snow can covercurtain everything, and sometimes it makes up and change to beautiful things.
We can phrase it with another words in Japanese ”雪化粧” "Yuki Gesho". "化粧" "Gesho" means make up. It means Snow is a Cosmetic item.

One of my invention may make all woman in the world into mellow woman as cosmetic materials.

Flute （フルート）

My wife and I, we bought this flute and a trumpet at the same time when our doughtier joined a brass band club as a new student in her junior high school. Why we bought the both instruments because she wanted to play a flute before joining the club. Unfortunately, she had to play assigned trumpet after all. So we gave her a chance to play the flute anytime and anywhere. But she enjoyed to play the trumpet in the club. And she had never played the flute.

So I tried to play it with a flute manual alone at that time.


Several months later, I could play very easy pieces and enjoy to play it with my wife's piano in our home. But I enjoyed to play it for just a couple years. And non one play it after that.

I will take this occasion to enjoy to play it. But now I must be a beginner.

A transverse flute from China （中国産横笛）

A Chinese who is friend of my wife's father brought it as souvenir from China.

Unfortunately, no one can play it in our house.


He comes to Japan at lest once a year and stays always at our house when he calls on her father.



I hear that his daughter will be studying an art from spring this year at a college in here.

Alto Recorder 2 （アルトリコーダー ２）

I bought it when I had been in US about twenty years ago for participating an academic conference held at University of Washington in St. Louis.



At that time, I had a presentation regarding my invention as poster session. Now the invention is well known as very unique material in our business field. So this Alto Recorder is very memorable article for me.

Alto Recorder （アルトリコーダー）

Our children played this Alto Recorder in elementary school.
They used it on the music class.
So it was attached name tag on the flank.
My son's name was put on his sister's name.


Now no one play it.

Third attack of Mole （3度目のモグラの田越し）

A Macro photography shows it like a mountain.

Sopranino Recorder （ソプラニーノリコーダ－）

I don't know why two Sopranino Recorders are in our house.

We usually call a soprano recorder, 縦笛(TATE BUE） in Japanese.
But we have to call a Sopranino Recorder ｿﾌﾟﾗﾆｰﾉﾘｺｰﾀﾞｰ in Japanese to sort out it from Soprano Recorder.
We never it 縦笛(TATE BUE).

Soprano Recorder （縦笛）

To my surprise, there are many kind of instruments in my house.
I would like to show you a Soprano Recorder (SP) first of all.
Unfortunately, the mouthpiece of the showed SP disappeared, so this photo should be like this.



This is a musical score for Guitar and SP.

When I was single, I had enjoyed to play the SR with a Guitar which my friend played.

The following score is for a clavier and SR.

After marriage, I had enjoyed to play it with my wife playing a piano for a couple of months.

Last night must be most coldest in this winter.
My wife found out the faucet with an icicle at our garden in the morning.

Cordial gratitude and Goodbye !!! （感謝感激）

This my watch which my family presented didn't work since yesterday.
I have taken on it for fifteen years, I love it.
But my watch used to stop in every winter. since a couple years ago.
Even so, when I wear it. The hand of watch will go ticktock feeling the warmth of my arm skin.
Every morning in winter, I have to adjust time of it using the crown before going to my office every morning.

But I cloud not turn around the crown of the watch yesterday morning.

This is new one which my children presented to me last year for my retirement.


They did present another one for my wife also.
These are fully automatic watch, so we never do anything for maintenance.
Just wearing them as pair watch.


Thanks my lovely children and goodbye old my watch, and hello new our watches!!!
