Though it's hot at daytime yet, it's cool in the morning and at night.
We hear the sound of insects that tells us the coming of fall.
Today is the summer festival of Da-i-shi temple and many people visit there in the evening.
This also tells us the end of summer.
The people of the village set a flag and offer flowers, fruits, vegetables and so on to a little shrine at this time.
We call this little shrine " Ko-i-cha no ba-sa-n" that means 'an old woman who likes strong green tea" .
This shrine is used in the mystery by Yo-ko-m-izio Se-i-shi who is one of the greatest mystery writer in Japan.
We can see it in the mystery of "Ya-tsu-ha-ka mu-ra'.
The flag has been renewed this year.
This is Yo-ko-mi-zo Se-i-shi's house of evacuation.
He lived here from 1945 to 1948 and wrote many masterpieces here.
Lots of fans visit here from all of Japan.
* Addition
An ambulance came to O-da-ishi temple in the morning.
An old man who was preparing the festival seemed to have suffered from heat stroke.
The same thing happened the year before last too.
Please take care!
