So ぬ?

[nnozomi]

Mostly photos. I passed a little shrine nearby which was spilling bounty all over the ground, and couldn't resist collecting one or two relatively unbruised fruits. Washed and cut they were tart and tasty; I'm tempted to go ask the priest (?) if I can have permission to pick the ones remaining on the trees when they're ripe, it's such a waste otherwise.



Also a(n ex-?) storefront with a very weird sign; it made me giggle a lot, but the joke requires both reading Japanese kana and being somewhat familiar with Yiddishisms. Phonetically, it says: nu?


Also some more flowers, all apparently inspired by the colors of the apricots.



Be safe and well.

A lovely collection of pics! I like the upside-down emoticon on the right-hand roller door. :-)

Beautiful. I hope they say you're welcome to the fruit!

[nnozomi]

Thank you! I'll keep you posted. Imagine having a heavily fruiting apricot tree and not even picking them.

Lovely flower photos! The weather here this year hasn't been good for flowers, so it's not nearly as colourful as usual. Nice to live vicariously.

Thank you and glad to provide! They seem to bloom here regardless.

Wow, that's a very orange post. :DD Such beautiful flowers indeed.

(I chuckled at the "Nu?" thing too. :D)

Hmmm apricots. <3 I always find public trees that noone picks a waste, too.

"Nu?" is one of those things you either get or you don't, I'm glad it made you laugh ;)

I went back to the apricot shrine today, but there was nobody there and I didn't have the nerve to ring the bell on the associated house...maybe Wednesday.
