公園の黄葉はほぼ終わってしまいました。何ともわびしい。
The deciduous trees have mostly lost their leaves, which makes me feel that we really are at the end of the year.
川沿いを歩いていたら、柴犬のキリュウ(輝龍)が向こうからやって来ました。
As we were walking, Kiryu, a young male Shiba Inu, came towards us.

お昼すぎに家を出て近所を歩いていたら、ネコがタイガを意識しながら道を横切りました。集合住宅の駐輪場へ入り、柵の向こうからタイガを見ています。
When we went out after lunch for Taiga's 3rd walk of the day, a cat crossed the road ahead of Taiga. It went into a bicycle park of a condominium and started looking at Taiga from behind the wire fence.
私が住んでいる地域は石神井川を底に、両側は丘陵地帯になっています。今日は川を渡って早宮地区を歩いてみました。急な坂を登り切ったところで素敵な集合住宅がありました。以前、散歩中に話込んだ年輩のご夫婦から聞いた場所。現在住んでいる家を処分して、ここの物件を購入しようか考えているということだったので、いつか行ってみようと思っていました。ここも含め、とても静かで上品な雰囲気のエリアです。
The area I live in is very hilly. With the Shakujii River at the bottom, we have undulating terrain on both sides. We crossed the river this morning to walk an area little known to me. I recently met an old couple during our walk, who told me that they were thinking of selling their house and buying a unit in a condominium in this area. So, I was curious to actually seeing the site. I found it at the top of a steep hill and the area was very pleasant and quiet.昨夜の12時過ぎから降り出した雨は、今朝9時近くになってやっと止みました。ずっと小雨程度の降り方でしたが、こんなに長時間降ったのは久しぶりです。おかげで2,3日は庭の水やりをしなくて済みそうです。午後2時頃の散歩で城北中央公園へ行きました。
The rain that started just after midnight lasted until nearly 9 a.m. this morning. The rain was not heavy but we have not had rain with such a long duration for months. Thanks to that, I would not have to water my garden for the next few days. We headed for the Johoku Central Park at 2 p.m.
