Up at 3:30 a.m., Boza and I walked and ate breakfast. Then I went to town after leaving Boza hiding under the bed and refusing to come out. He heard me grab the car keys and that means town, a place he prefers not to go, unless he has to… I dreamed of going to […]
What can you say? The young soul of Russia! Polina Gagarina – A Million Voices (from Russia)
63X zoom, standing at our fence line, resting on a post. I finally after hundreds of shots, got a clear picture of the bell. The sky is crystal clear and this is the only clear shot out of 10 I took today. I am so happy… I have wanted to get a shot to allow […]

I was walking with Boza and it was 4:30 a.m. at the time I stopped to listen. The sun had peaked above the edge of the earth at around 4 a.m. and we had been walking in chorus with what seemed like millions of birds, all singing for attention from what ever audience that they […]
Many thoughts this morning after a two hour walk with Boza. It has taken a few days, but I have built my stamina back up and now we walk four times a day for an hour or more. Now after an invigorating walk, I am having a cup or two of delicious coffee and I […]
The orange dot on the images above is our village home. I put the dot in the front yard… It is called “заря свободы” or “dawn of freedom” and I call it Sunrise to Freedom… That is a name that should make you think and wonder about the truth behind life in Russia. The locals […]
