Yesterday was a good day… Svetochka worked hard and helped me to stack some wood. She also took lots of pictures and her and Boza walked all over the place. I got a break from the walking Boza thingy! We worked in the yard and the whole family was there. Svetochka, Boza, the birdbrains and […]
The Tiny Russian Village Monastery is getting a new roof put on the building they use as a church. These are the guys who shoveled their way to the village the other day… -10 below zero and they work. Drink lots of hot tea and work… * * * * * Svetochka comes tonight. We […]
Dozens of people have not received RSS updates for days… I am still here and still writing. While the main part of the world does not try to attack WtR, America the land of the free, attacks constantly and I see a future that maybe you will be blocked from seeing sites like Windows to […]
Actually two rare things happened… First, Boza and I got up at 1 a.m. and walked twice. Boza had doggy things to do and it was almost -20. Windy and cold, made it hard for a doggy to do his things. But he did and then him and I went back to bed. It was […]
