晩夏から初秋へ・・・スズムシの音に魅かれる

　最近は涼しさを求め、お気に入り喫茶「さんぽ道」へ週2回の割で行ってます。今日の午後も３時頃から訪れたところ、偶然に知人夫妻も見えたので暫くぶりにお会いできました。ここは珍しく周囲の自然環境が抜群で気持ちが安らぐのでしょう。お気に入りとなったリピーターが多いです。

　また、今日はママさんのお父さんが籠にスズムシ１０匹ほど運んで来られ、早速鳴き始めたら天井が高いので鳴き声がよく響きます。これで益々秋の雰囲気が漂い始めてます。餌はキュウリです。それにしてもスズムシの音は落ち着きます。

　暫し読書しつつ、アイス珈琲で晩夏のひと時を過ごしました。

　Lately, I've been heading to my favorite cafe, Sampo-michi, twice a week in search of some coolness. I went there this afternoon around 3pm and happened to see a couple I know, so I was able to meet them for the first time in a while. This place is unusually surrounded by outstanding natural beauty, which must be so relaxing. It's become a favorite with many repeat customers.

　By accident, today, the mama's father brought in about 10 bell crickets in a cage, and when they started chirping, their chirps echoed loudly due to the high ceiling. The autumn atmosphere is starting to feel even more intense. They fed cucumbers. The sound of the bell crickets is truly soothing.

　I spent reading and enjoying some iced-coffee, enjoying the late summer vibes.
