Countryside hiking (episode 12 - On the hillside)


Some days ago I had to wait for a person. It was late in the morning, the sky was not clear and the light of the day was fading down.

But I had a temptation in front of me.

It was the hillside where I was used to hiking with my cousins when I was a child.

As we are in winter the grass is low and it simple to walk uphill even if the soil was wet as it was rained the day before.

When I was younger there was not the vineyard, but a big "Marosticano" (as we call it: a cherry plum tree) and some wild apple trees which we were used "to visiting" from June to August.

The old house was in good condition some tens of years ago.

Now it is very dilapidated but still an interesting example of rich country architecture.

All the images were taken by me with the smartphone camera.
