今日は朝から雲ひとつない青空。家を出たときは寒かったけど、日にあたりながら公園を歩いているうちに汗ばんできました。タイガは築山の上から周りを見渡すのが好きなので、ポーズを取らせました。
A beautiful morning without a speck of cloud. Although it was cold when I left home, I was perspiring in the sun as we walked in the park. Taiga standing at her favourite place, the top of a small hill, from where she can look out to spot friends passing.
ちょうど、スバル君が通るのが見えたので挨拶に下へ降りました。
Subaru, a young male Shiba mix came along, so we hurried down.
Subaru is several years younger than Taiga and needs to walk very long distances every day, just like Taiga did until 3 years ago. He has extraordinary eyes, hazel-coloured, with a piercing look.
そのあとは恒例の草風呂。
四中横の草地のカリンは毎年豊作。もっと黄色に色づいたら芳香剤のような匂いが漂ってくるでしょう。
The Chinese quince tree with lots of fruits. When the fruits become yellow and ripe, you can smell the distinct scent.
あー、これがリンゴでうちに植わっていたら良いのに.....
Pity these are not apples and growing in my garden....
カリンの木陰でタイガにポーズを取らせました(コチの煽りで買収)。
