Wear hiking shoes, light-colored pants, hat

We will walk observantly via the west pond-side trail to the Large Jewels.
        "Landscape" in Chinese characters,  山水=mountain and water

Appreciate the lay of the stones, the Large Jewels.
        Colorations, moss, lichen
        Forms
        Relationships
             to other stones
             to plants, trees
             to the path or The Path
        If or how to enhance what is here
             to what degree
             keep a "sacred" or untouched area

Return to inner Jikoji
         Examine and consider one area--perhaps outside the office angling up to road?
         How shall we look at that space and its function(s)?
         Does it need something re-arranged, added, subtracted?
         Consider other jobs individuals might do for the landscape.
