Today, Friday, I went to my bank to make a small withdrawal. On my way home I found the power company was working on the electricity supply for my apartment complex. They must have finished their work by the time I got home. It looks like the apartment buildings have chimneys but they are actually vents for the kitchen stoves. They carry the fumes of cooking out of the apartment kitchens.
Today I took the number 10 bus to the Botanical Gardens. Don’t take the 10A because it doesn’t go that far. It was a beautiful day, one of Batumi’s 300 beautiful days each year.
A big shout out to the people who follow me. Unfortunately I’ve had to leave Russia. It became impossible to receive any funds from the US. I am currently living in Batumi, Georgia.
This is my family in the living room of my apartment in Kimovsk, Russia. I am a disabled Vietnam veteran. Seventy eight years of age. My son Aleksandr (left), and my granddaughter Dasha (center) look in on me. Here, I had hoped to live out my retirement years.
