Between ul. Trombity and ul. Sarabandy runs an untarmacked road (long may it stay that way!), ul. Dumki. Few houses, many trees, abandoned fields, farm buildings and orchards, and at the far end, to the left, the marshy, reed-filled wetlands.
A place for solitary walks, rural atmosphere, contemplation and peace. And yet so close to central Warsaw.
The road here is too narrow, too rutted, too muddy when it rains, to be passable by motorised traffic. I once had to divert this way when ul. Trombity was blocked by a fallen tree; ul. Dumki is extremely difficult to negotiate as part of an everyday journey to work. Good. Long may it stay unused by commuters.
Eddie and I are off for a week's skiing in
Dobra, so no new posts until 25 January.

with this blog, you do not merely 'look'.....you 'SEE'.
ReplyDeleteYou do not simply 'describe'....you 'EMBODY'. Your snow-bound photos embody peace and contemplation as described and yet also offer glimpses of the past and present form untouched, which one day, the future may remove. Unassuming idle scrub and marshland, the very collar of rural delight. Long may it continue.
