投稿の詳細: 峰の原から　From Minenohara

雨のせいで猛暑が大分和らいだ13日
峰の原の星空観察会は屋内で…という予定が
以外にも雲が流れて、ペルセルス座流星群に
出会えました。大きな歓声があがります。
天の川や夏の大三角形に土星の輪もくっきりと見る
ことができた、涼しい高原の夏の夜のひと時。

翌日、峰の原から車でわずか30分ほど、湯の丸高原
にある池の平湿原を散歩。標高2000メートルの湿原は
木で遊歩道が整備されていて、雨上がりの爽やかな風が
秋の気配。　

都会からの親戚を横手山に連れて行こうか迷いましたが、
出発した時の雨も晴れ、前夜に続いて嬉しい経験を
喜びました。

峰の原から周囲を見回すと、近くなのに知らなかった信州の
良いところが見えてきます。

The rain cooled down the summer heat on August 13 but the
the Perseid Meteor Shower watch was supposed to be canceled
due to the bad weather. However, I was lucky enough to watch
a few shooting stars in the sky as well as the Milky Way,
Large triangle of summer and the Saturn’s rings because
of the wind having blown off the clouds.

On the following day, 30 minutes drive took me to the Ikenodaira
Wetlands which is on the Yunomaru Highland at the altitude of
2000 meters. The wooden promenade was prepared around the area
and I was able to enjoy the highland breeze after rain.

I though I would take my relatives from Tokyo to the Yokoteyama
Mountain in the north but we all enjoyed the experience with the sudden
sun shine on the day following the clear sky the night before.

Looking around from Minenohara, we can find beautiful sceneries
of Shinshu near us that we still have not seen.
