After 11 days without a walk, cooped up indoors (comfortably, I must say), it was time to put on my parka and my Ukrainian army boots and set off for a stroll. Eleven days without a walk, but only four days with zero exercise (I felt well enough to do push-ups, squats, weights etc after day five).
Below: my favourite landscape, down the end of the road and round the corner. No apologies for repeated postings of photographs taken of this local feature.
[Update, 6 February 2024 - the re-branded Transoil station is still not open.]
Below: sunset is now seven minutes later than the year's earliest; here's Chynów railway station on Boxing Day.
Today's stroll - I take in a sunset through the trees in Jakubowizna, below. Just a pinprick of light through the pine trees. Click to enlarge.
And at the other end of the village - moonrise!
There is Certainty; there is Doubt. But there is also ennui, Weltschmertz, and gnuśność. Doubt I can cope with; but a virus-induced lack of get-up-and-go needs dealing with.
Below: moon rising above the orchard at the end of my garden.
"Jesus saith unto him, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk. 9 And immediately the man took up his bed, and walked."
