Well good thing I made that last trip to the Big Village yesterday. Looks like a week of snow and right now it is a literal blizzard. Boza and I are safe, warm and cozy in our Tiny Russian Village home and we walked this morning at 2 a.m., to find the world had become a foot deep and very white. It took Boza a few minutes to assimilate to the new surroundings and he stayed closer than normal to me, but soon he got his sightless bearings and off he ran to trip the snow drifts fantastic…
I will try to get images later, but it may just snow for days at this point and it is all I can do to fight the white and drifting snow. Much less try to stop and take pictures of the world. I think in a few days, I will be able to get some images…
Boza is smart, he did his doggy business at 2 a.m. and home we came. Then he settled at my spot on the bed and fell sound asleep. Therefore, I am writing a post. I tried to shovel snow, but as fast as I shoveled, the wind blew it back. Some times you have to just wait and let the world stop being wild and when it calms, you dig your way out…
It is not cold! Just -1, but a 20 to 30 kph wind is making things interesting. So it is cold regardless as the wind cuts through everything you wear. The wind is coming straight from the south, 91% humidity outside and max gust of wind was 48.2 kph. Old Man Winter has woke up and he is playing today…

I do have to say something; The propaganda about certain so called dictators in the world by the Western Empire has reached a whole different level of sadness. Castro has just died and we have people celebrating in the streets over his death, I saw this over Bin Laden and have seen it over several things like this in my many years. The comments on websites are atrocious and we as a race should be ashamed of what is happening. To celebrate any death is sick and a sign of the moral structure of a country…
I lived in Florida for years and knew many Cubans from that association. Florida is a crime heavy state. Mostly gated communities, emergency call boxes every mile and on and on. Security measures are number one in Florida. The Cubans in general were not all of the socially moral type who came from Cuba. We acted like they were and the good Cubans who are out numbered by far, do not lay the same groundwork of terror that the hate filled ones do about Cuba and its past. When you get a societies dredges because they were kicked out of their country. You get what you take in and praise as wonderful. Once again, we made our bed and we sleep in it nightly. We accept the propaganda about Cuba as verbatim and do not stop to look at the sources of these propaganda…
RIP Castro he is a serious part of our history and will go down much higher on the list of importance than almost all of our presidents of the US! If we can not separate the chaff from the grain in such instances, then we are lost to propaganda and that is what is wanted. We blindly follow the narrative and worse of all; We blindly murder for the narrative…
He was no angel of mercy, but seriously, we in the USA are actually far from an angel of mercy! That self proclaimed illusion that we like to associate ourselves with. We are not but a reflection of what and who we condemn. We are our own worst adversary for peace in the world…
It was the US that tried to assassinate Castro numerous times. It was the US that spread lies about Castro and his doings. I know, Cuba is one place I have been in the military. All is not what it seems when we as a country (USA) talks about Cuba. The narrative has been and still is a narrative of hate and digression about Cuba…
Do you ever want to know the real truth?

Boza and I are going to wait for daylight to have our long walk. That is something we do, snow, rain, sleet or shine. We walk and see the world of the Tiny Russian Village. I am going to check my vitals, such as sugar levels and blood pressure. I woke at 4.4 mmol/l and 89/55 blood pressure. I want to see how they are doing after breakfast and some coffee…
Therefore, gotta go and get ready for life… 🙂
