Nature-made beauty

To welcome a prosperous new year, we at Mimilocco has started a year-end cleaning.

The hardest cleaning spot is the accumulated fallen leaves in the lateral groove in front of our car-parking lift,　which takes two men to work on it.

Those fallen leaves went through the grating to sit in a row back to back.

I hope that, as it is often told in a Japanese fairy story, a raccoon or a fox transforms them into “koban” or former Japanese oval gold coins.

As, unfortunately, my dream was not materialized, I collected all the fallen leaves and carried to our trash storage shed.
