Spring is approaching.

Spring weather has arrived.

We have exceptionally dry weather here in Tokyo.



I'm relieved they haven't had so much snow this year
in my hometown where my sister and her husband live.

They asked someone to remove snow from the roof of
their house only once this winter---usually a few times.

My hometown is a depopulated town.

I know it is very difficult for the elderly people
to live in the snow country.

I pray there will not snow any more in my hometown.

I do love to see the snow scenery, though.
