A beautiful day

 Yesterday, Thursday, March 27, turned out to be a beautiful day after a very poor beginning. I had rained on Tuesday and Wednesday, also during the early morning on Thursday. It was a ground golf day, so my wife and went to the grounds to see if we would play. Although the ground was quite wet and the sky had the look of more rain, the forecast was for clear skies, so the group decided to play. This is our ground before the 'holes' were set. I will have more about ground golf sometime in the future. Look at the trees in the distance. They are pink. The cherry trees were in full bloom. By the time we had finish playing, the sky had cleared and it was a beautiful warm day. I decided to go for a walk to see the cherry trees.

 This tree is beside the stream that runs behind the hill in the first picture. Actual it is not a natural hill, but it is a kofun and old grave mound. It has been excavated and is now part of Antoku Park.

For the first time this year, I saw kids playing in the water.
