Slowly but surely

 

High school girls I saw in town.

 

 

Almost all of the temporary dwellings are painted in one colour - grey.

These buildings seem to resemble storage sheds. Gazing at them from the outside, I can't help but feel overwhelmed by pity and sadness.

 

 

A couple of weeks ago, I began to notice things I did not see before: roads have become passable again; the big items of debris have been cleared away; gutters have been repaired and covered; and the reconstruction of telephone cables and traffic lights is progressing. Children are welcoming a new school year that will be different from the past one. 

Did the changes in town draw your attention as well?

I want to retake photographs of this charming spot sometime, and introduce them here. Quite often, I take pictures from within the car, so my timing is sometimes off and I catch only half of the image. This is one of them.
