The last seven days have seen perfect blue skies. The orchards are ripened; fruit is being gathered in. It's still summer-hot, with highs approaching 30C. Despite the dryness, the earth isn't scorched, the vegetation hasn't been burnt brown. Optimal late-summer/early-autumn weather as far as I'm concerned. But it's definitely hotter than the early Septembers from days gone by.
Below: a farm track wends its way through a small copse; behind me and ahead of me, orchards.
Below: over the next few weeks, this will be a common sight - tractor-hauled trains of apple-crates on their way to the punkt skupu, where they'll be sold.
Below: stepping out of Chynów station on the east side - Jabłkowizna full of apple.
Below: mid-century Americana in Kodachrome - the bottom end of my street.
Below: from the same end of my street, sunset across the tracks
All hopped up
