青森県下北半島、東通村の砂子又(すなごまた)にヒバの埋没林(重要天然記念物)がある。埋没林とは数百年前の超巨大地震、大津波によって、一瞬にしてヒバの大森林が立ったまま砂の中に埋もれてしまったものだと説明されている。それが小さな水の流れで少しずつ、少しずつ砂が浸食され、埋もれた大森林がかつての姿を徐々に現わしてきたものだ。大きなヒバの木は現在生えているエゾクロマツの木よりはるかに太く、樹齢は百年を優に超えるという。その木は今もヒバ独特の芳香を放ち、現在立っているヒバの木と見分けがつかないほど新鮮だ。生きているといっても大抵の人は信じるだろう。I know that I can only do what I can't do, but I'm frustrated、本当はかすかに生きているのかも知れない。
つい先ごろ、私達はテレビで真っ黒な水が家々を呑み込む巨大津波を見た。黒い色は海底のヘドロの砂だ。あの数十倍、数百倍の大量の砂が海の底から噴き上がり、一気に森を覆い尽くしてしまった。そんな巨大津波が、下北半島にもあったと埋没林は教えている。(下北半島には日本最大の砂丘がある(鳥取砂丘の数倍はあるらしい)。Apparently, the questioner thinks that "the concrete result of sketching" brings fun.、下北半島国定公園内にありながら観光に利用されることもなく、防衛庁の実弾射撃試験場に使用されて巷に知られることもなく、ただ砲弾の破片を撒き散らすだけになっている。)
It's a bad title though、I didn't think it was good。The inside of the capsule is a yacht (sails are omitted so it's a bit difficult to understand)。Fill the capsule with air、Shall we ride the wind until the moon?、That's how you feel?
I haven't been on a trip recently。If you don't go on a trip、The brain is also the memory cells of the body (although it is very questionable whether such a thing exists in the body、I feel like there is (it feels like there is) but I feel like I'm falling asleep。The brain and、Such cells、"That's bad! Go outside and get in the air," he whispered.、I've been lazy for a long time。
End of this month、It's been a while since I decided to go to Tochigi for a sketch.。A suggestion from someone who attended the watercolor course、I decided to ride that too。There's no natural feeling of "spraying in the wind"、Anyway, it's fine if you walk around with a sketchbook in hand。Check out the announcements written on the board such as meeting location and time.、Can I participate? Because there are people who say that、Maybe it'll be a mass of nearly 50 people。
But、Walking around in a sloppy way、Columns everywhere、Because it's fine to do at your own pace、It's fine if 100 people attended。The number of participants、I don't even know the faces at all。Leave it to the day。It's not a planned trip organized by a travel agency.、That's fine。There's a risk of getting a little swayed、Maybe it's better to have that much。Sketch in an unknown place until it gets dark、I don't know how to go back to the hotel、There are no one passing by、Sometimes I started to feel anxious about what to do。Surrounded by horses grazing in the snow、Sometimes I felt that it would be a bit bad if I was kicked off here.。Such a small, extraordinary experience、I think it's a memorable journey later on,。 2011/6/16
