What a sweet area this is but my time is running out here. So I take the chance for a last walk around in the woods as there's plenty of such choices. Today I pick this one walking South leaving the village of Wittelsberg behind me:
It's a beautiful day though still cold for summer standards (or at least my summer standards) and as you see I have a nice little forest ahead to explore. The spot has a nice view hence the local municipality placed this bench, not sure what's that sign about though (German speakers feel free to apply your input):
Oh, I shouldn't skip sharing the view right? There you go:
Part of the view is also these happy cows sunbathing under the early morning rays of the sun:
If you zoom in you'll see them staring at me with a bit of "what da fuk" attitude peppered with laziness.
Time to enter the Kingdom of Green:

First sign of logging here but I'm sure I'll find more later as the wood resources of the area are almost infinite:
Some roads are more straight,
and others are more muddy:
One of the fortunate dilemmas:
Left or right?

Nothing to regret either way I guess but I turn right:
More bits of logging:

Though it's rather demeaning to call bits these long logs.
Now see the green camouflage made by nature on that tree stump post logging:
Nature knows best how to smooth out the scars. As you can see it's a bit of a jungle here:
Such logging comes with a good amount of chainsaw dust:
Look how dense the forest is - full of young trees:
Happily lost in the serenity of these roads:
Tiny white bits seem lost in this ocean of Green:

More logs:

Even more logs:
Time to walk back to my place as I'm getting hungry and I also have to cook. This way seems to work:
And it actually does since it brings me back to the village view:
The cows are still here with the same stare:
And the path to the village is obviously unchanged except the light of the sun - even this not by much:
Before I step back down in the village you can watch a video from my walk in 4K:
I said I'm hungry didn't I? Hence my choice doesn't require that much of cooking - here's my dish:
Smoked salmon, aubergine salad, potatoes (done in the microwave), with some olive oil and dry tomato powder. Lovely🙂
At this point, prior to a long ride I have to do tomorrow I feel the need to praise my iron horse. Look at its exhaust end:
It might not say a lot to non petrolheads but this is how it looks unwashed since I can't recall when. The bike is well past 150.000km, it's oil and fuel consumption is the exact same as brand new and the exhaust still has no carbon built up. If you look the tip it's just metal with a slight touch of rust. Even inside the tube all you can see is just a thin black colour. Ageless!
Gotta have a good rest now, see you on the next one!
