# KOHO-CHI (5) <tr.> Site Proposed No.5 I went to where there had been Kofu temple before.  I'd been here.  I marked here. There's big maple tree. There's a firehouse beside stairs and I learned a person in charge was Mr.Haruta from the board. Mr.Haruta is a lively and frank man. Mr.Haruta told me where the house of a community head was and I visited him.  But his wife was there alone. I said that I would make a call one hour later.  I felt they would give me a good answer. When I came out of the community head's house, Mr.Haruta watched me with anxiety and asked, "OK?" I called the community head about at two. Then his answer was,"Yes, you can."  I wanted to go there soon, but as I had something to do, I went there at six. Where will I put up a tent?

# KOHO-CHI (5) <rep.> A Year Later I could find the site of Hofuku Temple easily. I've come up stairs and compared the point where Tetsuo had put up a tent and his sketch, and now I'm writing this note sitting on a stair.  When I came up stairs, as I looked upward, I slipped.  The stairs are narrow.  Tetsuo wrote, "It got darker and darker."  But I wonder if it should be very difficult to come up stairs when it's dark in the night. The site is almost same with the sketch.  I tried a horizontal bar, but the root was decayed and it tottered. On the opposite side, there's a mountain that the top is flat.  I think Tetsuo could relax here. By stairs, Indian lilac has pink flowers. A year ago, Tetsuo had put up a tent here.  The root of a horizontal bar is decayed. I went down stairs and visited a shop Haruta.  I asked him if he remembered a guy who had put up a tent the previous year, he answered he didn't.  He told me he thanked for the Earthworks Project, and turned to T.V. again.
