屋根からの雪景色。
強い寒気により、最高気温も零下という吹雪の毎日。
降り止まない雪はみるみるうちに積もり、
正月早々に雪下ろしをしなければいけなくなった。
雪下ろしは天気を選ぶため、どこかのうちが始めると
まるで釣られたかように、ご近所さんも精を出しはじめる。
いやぁ、まいっちゃうねぇ、と。
長丁場の肉体労働に溜め息をつきながらも、
膝を超す高さの長靴とスコップを持ち、いよいよ屋根に上がる。
そうして上がった屋根から見える雪景色には、
山登りでもしたような気分になる。

Snow lowering
Snow scene from roof.
Every day of the snowstorm of below zero continues to the highest temperature by the strong cold.
The snow that did not stop falling piled in a moment, and we came to have to do the snow lowering early in the New Year.
The snow lowering cannot be done if not fine.
Therefore, when someone starts, the vicinity also starts working.
As everyone saying, “Ah it is serious”.
We sigh to the physical labor for a long time.
And, we have boots and the shovel of height in which the knee is passed, and go up on the roof.
We see the snow scene from the roof that goes up, and we become done feelings the mountaineering.
