Some time after lunch, I noticed that it was hotter outside than indoors. I opened all the windows and the front door, and as soon as I could close the laptop, I was off for an autumnal walk to glory in the warmth. Dressed in a shirt with a light jacket, I was soon overheated, so the jacket was removed and stowed in the rucksack. Thermometer in my phone said 23°C. Every hour of heat stores in the walls and postpones the day when I have to start heating the house.
Below: gone 4pm and setting off; just across the road from my place – canonical Jakubowizna. Familiar landscapes for my soul.
Below: traditional wooden house along ulica Główna (Main Street), Chynów.
Below: junction of ul. Szkolna ('School Street') and ul. Sportowa ('Sporty Street'), Chynów.
Below: house at the edge of the forest, Chynów.
Below: from the footbridge over the DK50, the view looking northwest towards Wola Pieczyska. Note the way the setting sun lights up the electrical wires.
Below: for the first time this autumn, the sun is setting before six pm. It's setting over Lasopole; photo taken from the road bridge over the DK50 between Sułkowice and Chynów.
