As the weather forecast said that it would have a thunder shwer in afternoon, I left my home before 10:00 to make walking in morning. On 9th, this month, I was scheduled to play a game of "Get out of the Heat" golf at the Isogo Coutry Club with Mr. Hido Kitagawa and the other two classmates. I tried to walk around the outside of a golf course in order to confirm whether I have enough physical power for such a golf, I carried a camera , not anything else. I wore a short sleeve shirt and a short pant. Due to the effects of exercises at the health club, I could walk with light steps. I have never experienced such a comfortable walk for years. It may be effects of exercises at the health club. I was surprised myself. On the way, I turend to a highking road along the upper stream of Hayakawa river and came back. On the golf course, I could see players at any direction I turned. Meanwhile, not a few resort sites which were under construction have been abamdoned together with big construcion machines. These are sites of damages caused by the burst of bubble. Our tax money has been spent for the renovation of financial agencies whick invested stupidly lots of money in the unrealistic projects.

But now not a few enterprisers are investing in the development of resort projects in Hakone area, where is one of the nearest resorts from Tokyo. A few of resort houses are being built on the marsh. A big resort apartment building is under construction on the site of old fishing pond. There is a little boom of construction here.

I walked almost the same distance as of playing a round of golf, without drink, eat, nor rest, under mornng sun. However, at the very moment when I satisfied with the results of my experiment, I had fierce aches on both legs and could not walk at all. I was just standing there. My knees gave way. I could not move at all. After a few minutes, aches on both legs suddenly faded away.
In afternoon, the thunders came first. Then it had a heavy shower. When it was letting up after about two hours, a thunder dropped near my house with a big sound. In evening, I heard the bright sounds of fireworks though clouds and moistiures. At the Kojiri town, the fireworks show was held this evening.
