Many homes around the Ootaguro park have trees of mimosa.
This plant is difficult for gardeners.
Wrong cutting branches would kill the tree.
So, I am happy to see a mimosa tree with full bloom.

It must think the winter has passed. But the winter hides above the clowds.
When this cat enjoys the nap on the car, the gereral of winter flies back again.
It is not able to dream a dream of happy spring.

Among the goods, outside of the small auction of secondhands dealers, I find a case of a typewriter. On a memo-paper onto a case, there are "500". Somebody gets this case and typewriter for five hundred yens.

Without seeing inside of it, I know the typewriter is an Olympia Traveler.
I had the same one in the university days.

近藤勇葬儀式場 les funerailles

Isamu Kondo is a hero-samurai in the end of nineteen century.
He was from the suburbs of Edo and at Kyoto he became a leader of the Tokugawa bakufu squad to battle against the terrorists from western local powers.
The terroists successed to knock down the Tokugawa government and Kondo was executed as a criminal. But the history proves these terroists government would turn the fascist government to invade into Asisa.
In the deep place of the Japanese mind, people may think that these western powers in Japan might be a wrong power without Samurai spirit and those who were killed by those western barbarians should be heroes. So Kondo is a famous and popular samurai now.

People watches the name in front of a funeral hall to be hard to stop smiling.
