A door that isn't patched
End of a Roji in Setagaya-Daita, second Tsuyu day. The door is old wood, vertical grain, with a handwritten rice-paper signboard beside it. No plywood, no cardboard, no metal strip across the foot.
The three workshop doors further up the same Roji are all patched. This one is a residential door, and the patch language stops where the workshop function stops.
