Mei-Shun walked to a hair salon in high heels on weekend. During 5 minutes, she found red spider lilies on an empty garden; nobody looks residing, shutters are taken down. Hi, are you alone here? Did your owner moved away? She read that your blossom comes around autumnal 彼岸, green at the end of November. Next but one reservation would be a chance to see the latter.
Oh, Momo-chan, Shin and Mei-Shun are really pleased to see you bloom these days. We are still in September, said the hottest ever in which every lives on Mother Earth might feel exhausted. The husband first found tiny flowers, while the wife was already aware of green leaves. She has seen similar sight on wild cherry trees who lost nearly 80% kimono in midsummer.
It is a bit confusing for Mei-Shun to expect a full moon tonight, instead of 仲秋の名月 yesterday. Her lunar diary explains that the latter may not always be the 15th from astronomical viewpoint, yet attractive enough in clear autumnal sky called the prettiest. All right, it was therefore 十三夜 or the 2nd best seen on Monday. Professor M, a great photographer kindly taught her.
Shin, Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun drove to 加波山神社 on weekend. It was the 1st time for them to visit there, meant to make their 2nd 雨引観音 tour. The former is located on the way to the latter; the husband asked the wife if they try or not. She chose a kind of challenge, reached another attractive place. Two pairs of 狛犬 welcomed, while let them know a mountain trail starts from here.
So 桔梗=kikyo is called, perhaps coming from its bud shape. Mei-Shun’s mother sent her daughters photos taken in her 草津 garden. Single flower is normal for above breed, whose protandry might cause layered petals. Beloved father, your younger descendant heard that you asked a neighbor to give some seed of it. Thanks a million for letting us feel delight by marvel of nature.
… the answer is the latter, capital city of Albania where Shin stays right now; he uses Frankfurt as a hub airport to reach many European countries. Flight information told Mei-Shun that German temperature is around 20 degrees Celsius. She therefore recommended a windbreaker packed in his suitcase. On the contrary, 35 degrees are shown on Balkan Peninsula.
We might see above, a sweet rice cake from 金沢. White ones are also in the box, tastes better for Mei-Shun. Both are due by tomorrow when Shin comes back from Kyoto. They have consumed around half, ready to put the rest into a freezer: nice frozen pops would be served after breakfast, not a bath at night. The wife makes it a new rule, enjoying smooth melting in mouth.
Thanks a million, Professor M. It seems to Mei-Shun that he is the best photographer for the moon. Above is 小望月 many of us might see at midnight last Friday, whose image he kindly sent to her. Their reunion with Prof. A added would be held next month, after the former return from abroad on business. Will belated rainy season wait the beginning of July, when 七夕 festival is accommodated?
Mei-Shun is fairly fond of 合歓木. They normally bloom in rainy season, quite delayed this year. On the other hand, plants look like knowing how to survive much more than we do. With no drop from sky, humidity and temperature might let them open flowers to gain seeds. Such wisdom allows her to see pretty pink, enjoy photo session after dancing a bit on a horsey guy.
Shin, Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun visited 雨引観音 by Ms. Moon on weekend: the wife somehow felt like seeing above flower outside of their own garden. She seems to have been there years before, driving herself with mom-in-law — yet is it the same place? Enormous main building, full of cute babies held by young mothers in kimono, dogs, ducks and peacocks.
