Yesterday koharu's family and I visited Kumanogu-shrine
for the first time this year.

Kumanogu-shrine is a local shrine which stands about
15 minutes' walk from Kodaira Station on the Seibu Line.

It is in the residential area and loved by us locals.

We made our hands and mouth clean at a purification
basin to get rid of impurities.

At the hall of worship we rang the bell and prayed in silence.

koharu and the other members drew Omikuji.
I didn't.

After reading Omikuji, they tied the Omikuji on the trunk
of Keyaki tree.

I felt refreshed and renewed.
