Tonight, I'm going to Takasaki to drink draft beer. It's really rare, so please forgive me tonight.

　

　柿の実がたくさん生って、その重さで玄関への通路の上に垂れ下がり、人が通れなかったのですが、昨日の夕方、作業を行い、テープで枝を横に引っ張ったり、竹の棒で枝を高く押し上げました。

　

  元の幹の一部から新芽が出てそれを育てたのですが、未だ未だ細いので頼りない幹です。しかし、根からの養分量は今までと変わらないので、たくさん生ってます。今のところ柿の実と葉の色が同じ緑なので分かり難いですが、かなりの数が生ってます。先程、改めて数えたら７０個が確認できたので、見落としを含めると８０個程でしょう。

　捥いで食べられるのは１１月上旬予定で、あと３ヶ月です。実が色づき始めると野鳥がやって来るので、今年は食べられないように工夫します。

　ところで、今日も群馬県地方は猛暑になる気配です。お互いに熱中症対策として水分補給を徹底し、暑い夏を乗り切りましょう。昨日書きましたように、水をわざわざ買いに行かなくても、ペットボトルに水道水を入れ、冷蔵庫で冷やすと冷たい水が美味しく飲めます。今宵は、高崎に生ビールを飲みに行きます。本当にたまになので、今宵はお許しください。

Dear my friends abroad

　The simultaneous interpretation for your understanding will be after my radio gymnastics held in the nearby park and breakfast in Japan time.

    There are a lot of persimmons growing, and their weight caused to hang over the path to the entrance, so this situation is making it impossible for people to pass through. However, yesterday evening, I worked to pull the branches sideways with tape and push them up higher with bamboo poles.

　New shoot appeared from the original trunk, and I nurtured them, but it is still thin and unreliable trunks. However, the amount of nutrients from the roots remains the same as before, so there are a lot of persimmons. At the moment, it is difficult to distinguish because the persimmons and leaves are the same green, but there are quite a few. I guess more than 50 persimmons. I just counted them again and found 70, so including the ones I missed, there are probably around 80 in total.

　They will be ready to be picked and eaten in early November, so there are still three months left. When the fruits start to color, wild birds will come, so this year I will find a way to prevent them from being eaten.

　Not change the subject, but it looks like it will be extremely hot in Gumma Prefecture again today. Let's all stay hydrated to prevent heatstroke and get through the hot summer. As I wrote yesterday, we needn't go out to buy cold water; we can fill a plastic bottle with tap water and chill it in the refrigerator to make delicious cold water to drink. Tonight, I'm going to Takasaki to drink draft beer. It's really rare, so please forgive me tonight.
