Seven years ago I met the most wonderful Russian woman in the world! What started as friends on the Internet per e-mails, became a dream come true for this American. I moved to Russia six years ago and have never one time in those years, did I wish that I had never moved to Russia. In fact, I have realized over the years that Russia is an incredible, fantastic and wonderfully explicit country to live and travel in. I have been lucky in many ways and meeting a normal Russian woman who does not want to leave Russia, that was a blessing in disguise as I was the one who had to make the decision to leave my country. It was a decision that I have never regretted and it opened my eyes to a whole world of new ideas and thinking's. So welcome to Windows to Russia and stay a spell, sip a cup of coffee...

Hello,Windows to Russia!

I was drinking my coffee today and Svet came back in from walking the dog! It had been snowing like crazy and Svet took some pictures of her walk.

I Russia they do not have snow men they have snow women! They call them snezhnaya baba (снежная баба). Today was the first day that the snow has been really good to make snow women, normally the snow is so dry and cold that it does not stick together. But with the temperature changing, the snow is wet.

Russians are everywhere today with their kids making snow women…
The snow women are even made in miniature on the picnic tables.
They come in pairs!
They look like Hares (rabbits)!
They take lots of time and work!
They even come in male and Female!
The kids (old and young) have a blast!
They come sculptured!
They look like animals!
They even greet you on your path!

So Svet had a good walk while I stayed home. Looks like I missed a very fun walk and wish I had gone…
