I took a long peaceful walk today on Lennena ulitsya. It was quiet and peaceful. Big oak trees shade the street.
For an extended block the street is lined with photos honoring Tula fallen heroes of the special military operation.
About fifty six of them in all. A terrible price to have to pay because people like Hunter Biden want to do unspeakably bad things in Ukraine.
Yet for a city this size it a tiny amount. Probably not enough to deter those tempted by a sizable enlistment bonus.
There is a sign that says, “SERVING IN THE ELITE 106th ONE TIME PAYMENT 450,000 RUBLE
NATIVE ALIVE 106- TO ENLIST DAIL 117”
@MsTexasG So it looks like President Trump intends to end the Ukraine war in ten days. It will likely end in a flash. One that he won’t be able to take credit for because the moment he threatens Russia with his nuclear submarines. It’s Washington DC that will disappear in a flash. That radioactive dust circling the earth will be US!
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.
I am decorating my living room with items that are truly representative of the Middle East.
I have a samovar from Tula, Russia. I bought it at a shop that specialized in samovar and was located in the Kremlin. My granddaughter helped me pick it out.
I have two Russian tea glasses with comemeritive holders.
I don’t smoke but I have a hookah. It is very decorative in bright red.
I have a porcelain fruit dish on a pedestal. It is a red and gold pattern.
I have a five branch candle stick for the center of the dining table. It’s useful when the electricity is not available.
I have two floor lamps. One is of Morocco design.
A print of a painting of a Venisen canal scene hangs over the sofa which is classical Georgian.
Three nesting tables and a coffee table and a large vase full of roses.
