Windows to Russia

Took a walk and got soaked! That is a tiny Russian village for you. You take what you get and just wait it out. I woke to the pitter-patter of rain. It sounded nice and pleasant. Rain is necessary and in my case, rain is vital for the garden. Except the rain is making itContinue reading Rainy Day in Tiny Russian Village…

I did not post yesterday and that is rare. I actually only had one thing to really do yesterday and that was to get to the Big Village and get Boza’s food that had been ordered. I was feeling so bad that even that small task seemed overwhelming, but I made it to the BigContinue reading Yesterday not good…

Easy find link… First I want to thank a few people for donations. One in particular was for a recipe that they used and loved. That made me feel good and in fact the money will go for buying food. I will most likely go in the next few days and stock up. Thank youContinue reading Make it easy for the American drones to find me… (Not Ha Ha Funny to me!)

I had thought yesterday was going to be slow and uneventful, but Vova decided he needed help in gathering supplies for his animals and truthfully; he did need my help and my presence garnered him supplies in some cases… When you live in the country or as my case as growing up. Farmers do whatContinue reading Farmers; just the way I grew up…

Yesterday I finished the oak trees and got them moved out of the worlds way. It was a bad place that they were put in the first place, but all is good in the end. I spent two days cutting up six trees. Six seasoned and hard as a rock Oak trees. Vova came toContinue reading Saturday and all is quiet in the Tiny Russian Village…

by John Stanton… I have enjoyed John Stanton’s articles over the years and this article prompted me to express some words about his writing. He talks about issues that most, if any will not touch and talk about. This particular article rings so much truth, that almost all who read it will toss it intoContinue reading Organized Misery is Fascism…

How wonderful to meet a hero… Last night I was haunted by the past of the Tiny Russian Village and by my own past… I think that the village talks to me, because of all I have done in the past. My past is much more than your past. There are very few men orContinue reading How wonderful to meet a Hero…

In the Tiny Russian Village we are thriving and so are the Eagles… The eagles were hunting and they floated long enough for me to get at least a few good images. The first is of him looking off in the distance and if you look closely, the next one he is look straight atContinue reading Eagles and our Garden…
