Autumnal – but that beautiful autumn, starting to turn gold. Mushrooms – and mushroom pickers – are noticeable in the forests (though I can see only toadstools). Below: a recently ploughed field on the south-eastern edge of Jakubowizna. The tree on the left shows evidence of early leaf-shedding.
Back home with 13,000 paces on the clock, a walk of just under two hours. A similar day tomorrow – sunshine forecast for the whole day, maximum temperature 14°C, so I should make the most of it.
Below: entering Widok, where, according the local Facebook page, one of the two shops here will be reopening under new management. It could do with improvement, in particular a move toward self-service and a wider selection of product. Widok's other small shop serves great locally sources smoked meats.
Below: a new(-ish) wooden home built in the old style, Widok.
Below: a roadside crucifix by a small pond in Widok near the junction for Węszelówka.
Below: a familiar view on the way back home, taken from the top of a heap of earth by the side of the track from Adamów Rososki to Machcin II.
Below: autumn's emblem. The other one I'm not yet seeing – babie lato – (or spider ballooning).
Below: again, a familiar view; the track back to Jakubowizna dives into the trees as autumn starts painting its colours on the leaves.
Back home with 13,000 paces on the clock, a walk of just under two hours. A similar day tomorrow – sunshine forecast for the whole day, maximum temperature 14°C, so I should make the most of it.
This is ideal weather for tourism; not too hot, dry – and the schools and universities are back.
