Yesterday we took our dog, Sam, to the veterinarian in Novomoscova. I drove our Lada automobile. I like my Lada. I turn the key and it starts so long as I don’t run the battery dead by forgetting to turn off the lights.
We had to wait to till 17:00 for the veterinarian to finish with Sam. It was a hot day so we decided to go to a park where we could sit in the cool shade.
First we went to a teknopark, which turned out to be a shopping center. So we had lunch at KFC.
Then we drove around until we spotted a park with tall trees and cool shade.
We got more than we expected. Not only was this a park but it also had a railroad museum and a zoo park.
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 six 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.
Christmas Day Walk
I went for a walk today. Almost all businesses are closed for Christmas Day. The store that sells Turkish carpets was open so I went in and immediately spotted a beautiful Oriental carpet, bright red, black and gold.
I ask if it was a magic carpet and if it would fly.
The lady answered, “All my carpets are magical. As to whether it will fly, that all depends on what you put in your hookah.”
This is my apartment in Batumi. It’s on the eighth floor and the elevator works most of the time.
I pay 800 lari per month for this two bedroom apartment. That is approximately $294.
I have a fifteen to twenty minute walk to the beach. This is a great town for retirement. There are plenty of beaches to rest when you get tired.
The pink bedroom I call my guest room and it’s where my granddaughter will sleep when she visits me.
