A cold wave that is said to be 10 years old is coming.How is everyone doing.Ice van today even in the daytime.Thank you very much for visiting us in the bad weather!

Cows stand firm even in the snowstorm and watch over the Sakai Plains today.Actually, I'm a scarecrow.One of the works exhibited in the Kagashi Contest, the main event of the Sakai Summer Festival, which began in XNUMX. Now, the cow is so famous in the local area that it has become a proper noun as "at that cow intersection". is the intersection ofIn addition, there are "Ozeki Crossing" and "Oni Crossing".
In fact, my grandparents were also involved in making the first generation of cows that stood at this intersection.When it was submitted to the competition, it was made of wood and there was a person (doll) who took care of the cow next to it.It seems that only the cows that fit the PR of Wakasa beef and the slogan "Don't do reckless driving" were left.When it was first placed at the intersection, I was always proud and happy that it was a cow made by my grandparents.The original cow is no longer there, but I feel like my grandparents are watching over me every time I cross an intersection.

This is the "Ozeki Crossing".It is said that the place name is "Shimonoseki".Echizen Railway Mikuni Awara Line "Ozeki Station" and "Ozeki Elementary School" are nearby.I was surprised when I first saw it.It's very powerful.Well, this is also the topic of ozeki.For the first time in 10 years, a Japanese wrestler was born at today's Grand Sumo Tournament.Congratulations to Ozeki Kotoshogiku.I was very impressed.
The cow intersection is about 20 minutes from Awara Onsen, and the Ozeki intersection is about 10 minutes away.When you come to Awara Onsen, please try to find many other scarecrows.
