[A Giant Pumpkin Appears!?] I found giant pumpkins growing just beyond Setogyu Pass, past the center of Nishiokoppe. Apparently, some of them had been eaten by deer... I'd like to use them as Halloween decorations! The last photo shows a mini pumpkin someone shared with me.

The temperature is dropping day by day, and it's getting a little chilly, but the bears still seem to be 🐻💦 a little hot.

I went to a Halloween event in the neighboring town of Niseko, and my daughter was excited because it was^^ crowded. My daughter, whom I have only known Coronavirus pandemic since elementary school, was very happy!

This is Mt. Yotei in the morning sun a while ago. Depending on the time, the color of the sky, the color of the mountains, and little by little, you can't ✨ take your eyes off it.

Mt. Yotei in front of our house, the morning glow at this time of autumn is dyed ^^ cherry blossom colorSakura Ezo Fuji ✨🌸 The school bus was fast, and Nebosuke's daughter was also impressed ^^.

Ikoro wears sideways and drinks water from above! Be careful not to fall!!

Karasu no Pan-ya San at Nishiokoppe Village The picture book "Karasu no Pan-ya San" Have you all read it? To celebrate the 50th anniversary of its publication a "Satoshi Kako Reproduction Original Art Exhibition" was held at Komu Museum of Art and on September 24 during the exhibition period bread making from the picture book took place. Following the illustrations, participants tore off portions of pre-fermented dough, rounded them, and shaped them. When the baked bread arrived children peered in with excited faces to see how the bread they made had turned out. Finally, they drew patterns with chocolate pens and it was complete! The two who made the saw-shaped bread and the daikon-shaped bread let me take a collaborative photo with them!^^! After the event I quietly let my imagination run wild, wondering, "What sort of bread shape would make people happy?"

I went to see the autumn colors at Lake Chimikeppu! At first glance, the leaves are just beginning to change. Some trees are turning color here and there, but it doesn’t look like a full display yet. According to staff at Chimikeppu Hotel, “It’s later than usual. It has been chilly recently, so the fall colors should develop from now.” Could the prolonged heat be the cause...? The cloudy skies over Lake Chimikeppu give it a certain mood, so that’s fine! The best viewing is still a little way off ☺️

The Hokkigai Festival, returning for the first time in four years, will be held on Sunday the 15th! 🥳🎉✨ Some autonomous buses on the 15th have been partially canceled due to expected crowds. 🚌 Please take note in advance! 💁‍♀️

The first snowfall on Mt. Yotei! !️ I could ^^ see it from my house. The daughter who is in the Alpine Boys' Club is overjoyed ✨ It's snow shoveling season for adults... However, the first snowfall is ✨ exciting every year.

I love ❗ the gradient in the direction of Rusutsu Resort before the autumn sunrise. View ✨ from the kitchen every morning Every day is different... I wonder what kind of day today will be.😆

Osmanthus fragrans is in bloom. Inside Roadside Station Kam in Nishiokoppe Village there is a greenhouse where plants that struggle to grow in Hokkaido’s climate are cultivated. When I stepped into the greenhouse in early October, a very pleasant fragrance filled the air. Trees of kinmokusei (fragrant olive) and ginmokusei bloom side by side. Kanmokusei bears small orange flowers. The slightly paler ones are ginmokusei. In Honshu, the scent of kinmokusei makes people feel, “Ah, autumn has arrived.” When you stop by the roadside station, please be sure to visit the greenhouse and breathe in the scent of autumn! The Flower Park charges admission until October 15; after that date it is open free of charge.

Shizuku with a very nice smile!

Tokiwadai, Bibai City: In the old days, when it was crowded with black diamonds, the quiet shaft became one with the scenery of autumn leaves.

The autumn leaves of the charcoal dwelling site of the "Gaji Family Park Campsite" in Bibai City, which was once crowded with coal mines, are turning color.

It was a good view. After all, adventures are fun no matter how old you are! Hokkaido is so big that you won't get tired of it.

We went to "Kumanosawa Park" in Sapporo. Some of the maple trees are colored, I was looking at it as if it was autumn.

Lately I've been looking for autumn. This is a cycling road in Sapporo

With the heat finally gone, Tsubetsu Town is now feeling almost cold. In a little while, the autumn colors like those in the attached photo should appear at Lake Chimikeppu… I can’t wait to see them.

Personally, I like the position and angle of my hands when I'm 💕 lucky.
