休みだった昨日の午後、運動不足解消のため散歩に出かけた。
この辺りは寺が多い。
ということは墓も多い。
山の斜面に段々畑ならぬ墓地が連なっている。
墓参りは午前中に行くものだとは言われているが、散歩だからいいか、とよその家の墓の周りをうろついた。
当然人影はない。
物故者たちもさぞかし気分いいだろうと思われる見晴らしの高台で、里庄町のつばきの丘運動公園からのように町を一望し、深呼吸した。
下る途中、山道に入り込んでしまった。
そのとき背後で何やらゴソっと音がしたと思ったら、振り向いた私に向かって黒い獣が突進してきた。
ものすごいスピードで私の足元をすり抜け、腐葉土を蹴散らして去っていった。
まさかクマ？イノシシ？
マジか！
私の住んでいるところはそういうところらしい‼
Yesterday afternoon, I had the day off, so I went for a walk to get some exercise.
There are many temples around here.
That means there are many graves.
Ranks of the mountain are lined with cemeteries, not terraced fields.
It's said that you should visit graves in the morning, but since I was just walking, I thought it would be okay, so I wandered around the graves of other people's houses.
Of course, there was no one around.
From the high point with a great view, where the deceased must have felt good, I took a deep breath and overlooked the town as if from Tsubakinooka Undo Park in Satosho Town.
On my way down, I ended up on a mountain path.
At that moment, I thought I heard a rustling sound behind me, and when I turned around, a black beast was charging towards me.
It slid past my feet at incredible speed, kicking up the leaf mold as it left.
Could that have been a bear? A wild boar?
Really?!
That's the kind of place I live in!
