Rice mill stepping stone -- rude or re-use?
亀清旅館の貸切家族風呂の工事がまた進んでいます。お風呂への通路は飛び石で作ってみたいと思いました。造っている途中の写真です。
砕石所で石を選んだ時にお米を擂る石もあって、それも拾って通路に使ってみました。食べ物に使うものは足で踏むのはどうかと思われる方もいらっしゃるかもしれないけど、捨てられた物を再利用する方がそのものに対して親切のではないかと思いますが、如何でしょうか?
The building of Kamesei Ryokan's family bath is continuing. Right now I am working on the approach to the bath, a path made of stepping stones.
When I went to the gravel company to pick out the stones, there were some round carved stones used to mill rice. I thought it would be interesting to use them for the path, too. Some people may think it's rude to use a food-related thing for people to step on. But I think re-using something that has been thrown away is a better use of materials. What do you think?
