Yamanokami

Community new year event appeasing and giving tribute to the mountain gods. Tiny bit of manual work in the early morning expanding a silver ring for the friend staying with us. I have never worked with silver before, it was surprisingly easy to reduce the metal. Little taps with the hammer while the ring was set over a long center punch to act as a mandrel.
A tiny tree felling job after the event and finally a little more firewood sawing with the circular saw.
I think Sammy took the friends to the station, I couldn't have driven them anyway as the license must go with the driver here, driving without it is not permitted.
