| November 24-25: Community Cultural Festival by Mie | |
|  | |
| This is my "end of autumn" visible through the kitchen window. Every puff of cold breeze makes the golden leaves of a gingko scatter on the kindergarten's playground. It is really beautiful. | |
|  In the afternoon on a day like this, I visited the community hall of our Fujimigaoka housing complex to see a cultural festival. This is a wonderful display of a patchwork group. | |
|  An enlarged patchwork of a flower pattern shows the painstaking gathering of the quilts. | |
|  | |
| Knitting works of coming year's zodiac animal "horse." | |
|  Our Haiku club also exhibits some works. | |
|  | Yes, this is my work. "Three flowers of red spider lily tell the arrival of autumn in the breeze." All of the architraves today are the handworks of our Haiku teacher. | 
|  My husband has returned from a backpacking with a senior personal computer group with souvenirs like those, just pulled out horse radish and newly picked persimmons. | |
