Мой любимый памятник


Sure, the monuments to Gogol, Peter I, etc. might be more "important" or "pertinent."  But I have fallen in love with this little booth, erected in honor of Russians' obsession with the weather.  The window displays the progression of barometric pressure over the past week, while the present is charted on the other side.  

I have fallen off the wagon, so to speak, over the last weeks, and am preparing an enormous entry covering that time, which included a 10-day cruise along the Volga, among other notable excursions.   Prepare yourselves, dear readers, for tomes ahead.
