Arms Museum Part 4

An 83mm mortar round and the tube you launch it from is the next exhibit. Then a motorcycle with side car. A display of all the military medals that were awarded by the Soviet Union. A display showing how extended range artillery rounds work. The round is cut away to show the rocket engine inside and the guidance system and how the tail fins deploy.
After looking at all the exhibits, I was tired and wanted to rest my feet. So, I stopped into the coffee shop (кафе) and had a Dobre Cola (добре кола) and a slice of cake.
You might notice the Coke a Cola sign on the refrigerator in the background. The refrigerator still says Coke a Cola but it’s now full of Dobre Cola. Which is the company that still bottles Coke a Cola for Georgia, Azerbaijan, Turkey, and Armenia, but only sells it as Dobre Cola in Russia.

Nuclear War

@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.

My living room in Batumi, Georgia 🇬🇪

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.

AT THE OFFICE!

I am once again at the office at AromA Coffee & Tea. This time I will sample their bacon crescent with a coffee Americano.
