温泉の何でも屋、村越さん、がひとつな丸太を板に切ってくれるということで、私が彼の千曲川の周辺の仕事場にお邪魔しに行きました。そうすると、面白い網の帽子をかぶっている人がいた。川辺のアカシアの木の皆が咲いているのでその関係でミツバチ屋さんたちが来ていました。これできっと美味しい蜂蜜が出来るでしょう。
Our onsen's handyman, Murakoshi-san, kindly offered to cut a log into planks for me. I drove over to his workplace along the Chikuma River as usual, but as I approached I saw some people with net masks. My first thought was X-Files, but then I realized they were beekeepers and were here because the acacia trees were in bloom. Apparently acacia flowers make for delicious honey.
