Column by the Third Generation
Beside the bustle, a scenery worth keeping.
Yesterday, with road closures for the futon-daiko procession, National Route 2 in front of the guesthouse was badly jammed. Long lines of cars, probably heading to the outlet mall behind us, stretched along the road.
A town where local rites carry on, and a seaside shopping complex full of people. In that scene I feel the changing of the times. As a guesthouse that has stood here for nearly 60 years, I sometimes think back fondly, and a little wistfully, to when this was a quiet roadside looking out over the sea.
As a town prospers, some things are lost and some are passed on. Along with the bustle, I want to keep the scenery that has long been cherished and time to live peacefully. That is what I thought about all day, watching the line of cars.
