Evidence of warm winter

These are plum blossoms on February 12 this year and on March 4 last year.
They are blooming about three or four weeks earlier than last year.

Taking these pictures, I heard a sound of sweeping the the precincts, so I entered the precincts quietly.
There was a priest of the temple I know well and he showed me inside the newly built temple.
Our temple now under construction will be the same as this one.

I was lucky !
