来年に期待するカッキー家の柿

　この写真は以前に撮ったものです。昨年は柿が生り過ぎました。その反動でしょう。今年は４個きり生らず、貴重です。このため、可哀そうですが、メジロなど野鳥君に食べられないように早めに捥ぎます。捥ぎ終わったら適宜剪定し、来年のために養分を蓄えます。

　来年は肥料を施し、豊作にするので、カッキーの柿を味わえるでしょう。

※今日は午後２時半頃より、カメラを持ち、桜木町の鯉池方面まで往復３Ｋほどウォーキングに行きました。ストライドを広めにとり歩きました。途中、二人の新たな人【女性・男性】と話しました。また、昔の県会議員の娘さんとも暫くぶりに立ち話をしました。

 

　This photo was taken by me several years ago. Last year, there were too many persimmons. Perhaps this is a reaction. This year, only four persimmons have grown, so that they are precious. For this reason, although it is regrettable, I will pick them early to prevent them from being eaten by wild birds such as white-eyes. After picking them, I will prune them appropriately to store nutrients for next year.

　Next year, I will fertilize the persimmon tree to ensure a good harvest, so please taste Kakki's persimmons.

※Today, starting around 2:30pm, I brought my camera and went for a 3km round trip walk to the carp pond in Sakuragi-cho. I made effort to walk with a wide stride. Along the way, I spoke with two new people (one lady and one man). I also had a brief chat with the daughter of a former prefectural assembly member after a long interval.
