20110928

Almost the end of september. Mid autumn...
But we are having Indian Summer! Today it was like summer, no cloud, strong sun with nice breeze. Really beautiful day. I hope this will last until weekend. (it said to continue for a couple of days)

もう9月の終わりです。秋も深まってきた・・・

と思いきや!インディアン・サマーです。今日は夏の日のようでした。雲ひとつない青空(日本では秋はよく晴れるけど、こっちはまったくそうでもない)。週末まで天気いいといいなぁ。

The Bulb Meadow



I spent half a day working in Rhododendron Walk and Lime Tree Walk, mainly weeding nasty things like brambles. It is relatively large area and on wilder side. It is difficult to decide what to do for four hours every two weeks. Not that there is nothing to do (quite opposite) but unlike more highly cultivated area (such as Walled Garden), you can’t go around weeding tiny weeds one by one. So what I do is to scan the whole area and go around taking major weeds etc but then it doesn’t take up the whole time…

今日は半日はロードデンドロン・ウォークとライムトゥリー・ウォークで、主に雑草取り。わりと広くてワイルドなエリアで、2週間に4時間しかメンテの時間がないので、できることはいっぱいあるけどさて、何から始めよう、と、いつもやや迷ってしまいます。

Anyway I was called back to the construction site and worked there for the afternoon. We somehow managed to finish it and the plan is to pour concrete in on Friday.

で、午後はまたレンガの続き・・・(20110927参照)なんとかやり終えて、金曜のコンクリ待ちです。


Some flower arrangement. (The purple flower is Aconitum, very poisonous)

また花を飾ってみました。青いのはトリカブトの花です。こんなにきれいなのに・・・きれいな花には何とやら。
