亀清旅館の貸切家族風呂の庭工事が段々と進んできました。岩設置が終わって、今度は木の植えつき。まずは5m蔵の高さのしなの木。「信州」の名前の由来の木です。
庭師の岡田さんが設置している所です。庭の出来上がりは楽しみだな。
Construction of Kamesei Ryokan's family bath is progressing smoothly. Right now we are working on the garden. Or, I should say, our gardener Okada-san is. He won't let me touch it -- this is going to be a professional garden!
The boulders have been moved into place, and now Okada-san is working on the plants. First the trees, and the first tree is this 5-meter tall Shinano tree. Nagano's historical name is "Shinano", from this tree.
I can't wait to see the finished product!
