I had something to do in Kokubunji yesterday.

Because of the pouring rain, buses were all late
and my lower half of the body was wet through!

Anyway, here I am Kokubunji Station.

A young lady with leaflets came to me
and asked me to listen to her.

About what? About horseback riding!

She told me the details about the riding school.

“Come and experience riding. You can do it.

It's now or never (今でしょ).”

Oh, I wished I could enjoy riding!

How wonderful to mount a horse
and cross the plains!


I said to her,
“Yes, I'd like to attend your trial lesson.

Horse riding has been one of my dreams.”

She looked delighted at my answer and said to me,

“ You are of course aged 70 and under?”

OH, NO!

I'm sorry to know I am too old
to try HORSE RIDING.
