우리는

애초에우리는두시간정도의

관람(야외관람을포함)을요하는

미술관을가려고했으나날씨가

너무덥다는이유로

화천방향으로가기로하고고속도로가아닌

구도로舊道路로북한강변을따라북北으로

칠팔십km의속력으로드라이브를시작했습니다.

팔당댐을지나고대성리를지나고

강촌을지나고의암댐을지나면서

춘천은호반의도시라는말이실감이납니다.

넉넉한수량水量으로가을초입의풍광이아름답습니다.

내륙이지만호수가운데

들어앉은섬같은도시가춘천입니다.

의암댐을지나면춘천댐이요화천댐으로이어지는데

시간을보니점심시간이고배도고프고

금강산도식후경이라는말이실감납니다.

가다보니이름을내걸고하는

동치미막국숫집간판이보이는데

마당에는손님들이타고온자동차들로가득합니다.

음식점건물이멋있게

한옥스타일의이층으로건축되었습니다.

오늘점심은이집이다생각하고들어가서

막국수는나중에먹을요량으로닭갈비를먼저주문하고

두리번거리며자세히보니이런이런,,

정작가려고했던집은

그아래좀허름한건물의음식점이었습니다.

옆에있는젊은이들이음식을다먹고나가면서

자기들도간판이비슷하게붙어있어주인이같은

같은음식점인줄알고들어왔다면서

"음식맛은좋아요."하면서나갑니다.

집은청결하고냉방은더할나위없습니다.

닭갈비맛좋았습니다.

철판닭갈비구이를다먹고

배가불러반씩나눠먹을요량으로

사람숫자의반으로막국수를

주문했는데반씩나눠담았다면서

모두에게막국수한그릇씩을갖다줍니다.

그런데그양이온전한한그릇씩의분량입니다.

주방장의서비스지요.

동치미막국수맛좋았습니다.

잘못된만남인줄알았는데

올바른만남이었습니다.

음식을다먹고나와서두집간판을비교해보니

동치미막국수는동일한데

한집은닭갈비전문이고

한집은닭백숙오리구이전문이니

닭갈비와동치미막국수가목표였던우리에게는바른만남이었고

맛도좋았습니다.탁월한주방장을영입했으리라는생각을했습니다.

우리는세상을살면서세상살이에서도이와같은경우를경험합니다.

연합하여합력하여선善을이루는.

닭갈비와동치미막국수는역시강원도춘천에서먹어야

제맛이라는생각을했습니다.

먹고마시는데취하여시간이많이경과되었습니다.

우리는귀경歸京에합의하고올라가다가보아둔카페에서

커피를마시기로하고그집으로향했습니다.

그넓은호반이자기집의소유처럼내려다보이는

카페에서각자의취향대로주문했는데,,

아메리카노로마셨습니다.

역시좋았습니다.

오늘은삼위일체로좋았습니다.

내일은비雨소식이있습니다.

전국적으로강우량이많다고합니다.

남쪽은그동안더위와가뭄으로고생했고농작물피해가크다고하는데

북쪽은덥기는했으나비는많이오고국지성소나기로자주내렸습니다.

이번비가지나가면기온이한층내려가고더위는물러나리라하고

아침저녁으로는서늘한가을초입의날씨가되리라합니다.

이번비로피해가없었으면좋겠습니다.

지나가는여름은누구라할것없이폭우로더위로고생을많이했습니다.

이제는누구라할것없이어김없이다가오는가을을맞이해야하고

겨울을대비해야합니다.

우리네인생이한해두해그렇게지나가고있습니다.

이글을쓰는시간대에는

사위四圍가어두운데비오는소리가들려

창문을닫으려고하니이미비는집안에들어와있습니다.

부지런히다니며차양遮陽이있는두군데만남겨두고

모든창문을닫았습니다.

번개와천둥소리도들렸습니다.

인생은사람이라는생각을합니다.

사람으로인하여힘들기도하지만사람으로인하여기쁨이시작되지요.

세상사는동안에기쁨의사람을만나는시간이많아졌으면좋겠습니다.

힘들기도하겠지만서로사랑하며서로위로하며서로도와가며..

서로건강하기를기도하며..
