Cornflowers, railroads, dugout and chicken chase

Let me start with a few more pictures taken while biking around Skarzysko yesterday. I'll be going away soon and all these sights will stay behind. Each and every day, anywhere you are, you can see something new and different, you can look at things from a different angle.

When peddling along Kopernika Street, I eventually found myself in the cornfields and stopped to take a picture of cornflowers in the cornfield, a rare sight nowadays. I remember the pretty blue flowers in the cornfields from the times of my childhood. I loved making wreaths or bouquets of them when staying with my grandparents in the summer.

In order to get to Skarzysko-Koscielne, I had to cross the railroads. I took a shortcut through the level crossing which is not really meant for ordinary road users, I suppose. However, for me it was very fortunate, because I could get a closer look at a proper old-style dugout.

'Ziemianki', that is dugouts like the one below, were very common in the past. They served as storage facilities. Villagers used them to keep potatoes and other food supplies.
