Poppy field and the hill of Valderrey

Where I live for the time being. Algete street scene no. 19. Not strictly a street but it is still named as the old road to Fuente El Saz and the return route is, not surprisingly, referred to as the old road to Algete and as this lies within Algete parish (just), I think it counts. Poppies seen here. Better perhaps on large!

Splendid ,. I took a look at the co-ordinates ,.and the 'Street view' camera has actually been along this track..- sure looks different from the bustle of Madrid,..
Keep well Andy,.. and 'all the best' from Dj.

Before the age of the car, this was the main road. I'm thankful that they didn't metal it - makes for a much nicer view from the house! Thank you, Dave!

This must be a sight to see in real life, Andy. Of course we get poppies here, but I've never seen them in such abundance.

Brilliant picture Andy - this is down at the view you can see from your sister's house. You mentioned it many times - especially because of the rain at this time of year, making the poppies come out like this.

So beautiful and well composed Andy. I love the road through the poppy fields taking yhour eyes into the scene and that is a lovely sky

Andy Rodker ^club has replied to Ecobird ^club

It's just a dirt track now, but I come across sections that were obviously metalled at some point and, I'm guessing here, but I suspect this would have been in the 1920s or early 30s and then the civil war put a stop to any further development. Better for our great view from the house, I say!
