Walking to Mirikaroden

 On this day I decided to walk to Mirikaroden. There are many routes that I can take but on this day I decided to walk by this shrine.

This is a typical scene in this area. The parking lot of this private home has the family's vehicles, a small truck and a tracker with attachments for working in the rice paddies. Also notice that the family has gardeners come and trim their trees. Most houses do not have natural looking trees. They are trimmed so that the leaves grow in little clumps with empty spaces in between.
