June 14th - my 76th birthday.

  It was cloudy in the morning, but clear in the afternoon. Similar weather continues these days. I went to Furusato Noen twice today. In the morning, I shoveled the soil between the furrows of the potato field and mound the soil on the roots of the potatoes. In the afternoon, I sowed the seeds of soy beans because the seedlings of soy beans I sowed on the wood deck have not grow well yet.
  Today, June 14th, is my 76th birthday. I don't feel anything special because I am spending happy usual days, but I realize I have only four years before my eighties. How long can I be as healthy as I am? And how many more years can I be alive? To think of such things, I am not so happy. In the evening, Ayako celebrated my birthday going with me to the izakaya restaurant  "Tsubohachi" to eat out. We returned home at 8:00.
