2022 Fall Festival - Day One

After two long years of COVID-19 restrictions, we were finally able to hold our neighborhood fall festival this year. The program was cut back a bit - no night festival or mochi maki and an abbreviated course. Rain hampered things on the second day no we couldn't have our usual yaki niku barbeque. But still, it was great to see my friends after so long and push-pull the danjiri throughout the neighborhood. My activities were cut back as well due to injury. I went back to being the event photographer rather than a danjiri pusher. But we were lucky to have a group of student volunteers from a nearby college - we really couldn't have done it without them.

秋祭 / Fall Festival 2021 (pt.1): canceled again due to COVID-19, but a few of us got together in the morning to drag the danjiri out of storage and clean it for the the first time in two years; it was good to see my friends again and participate in other activities at the shrine in the afternoon (to be continued...)
