Pasha, I wish you lived out here (USA) you do beautiful work. I would have you remodel or at least fix up the weak spots, in my home.
I know you get snow in Moscow but, do you get very hot weather in summer?
Now it is August, this month here it is quite cold at night (maybe even +6 C), and on the contrary it is hot during the day (sometimes +30 C). There will be snow here in winter, but this is good, because when there is no snow (little rainfall) the plants will can be damaged by frost. I wrote my location "Moscow", but i live not in Moscow, i live 50 km from Moscow in one small little-known (in Rusia) and totally unknown (in your country

) village. I rarely go anywhere, even to the nearest city I only went to the dentist, and before that I left the village only last year ))
And so I lead a slightly strange, semi-parasitic lifestyle here, i don`t work anywhere some years yet, and only constantly use all sorts of things from the world around me, and in my kitchen I have a strange combination of silverware and... dishes that someone threw in the trash. For example, I have a habit of walking around places where someone sets up landfills, and pulling out everything that may be useful from there. At the edge of the forest, someone got into the habit of throwing old glass, my neighbors went there to clean up so that garbage would not be lying around, but I got ahead of them and scooped out almost everything from there. My neighbor thought that I was going to clean up there, but I don`t clean there, i just came and took three carts full of old empty glass jars from cucumbers and other pickles. I brought them home, washed them with boiling water and detergent, washed them a little more with water and began to preserve cucumbers with an unperturbed face
Today I walked around my village and looked out for places where the owners of the plots did not mow the grass. Since they do not have goats or cows, they do not need grass and I quickly mow it and pick it up. Therefore, I really do not like well-groomed lawns - there is little grass from them, but when the place is running, i can very quickly mow a lot of grass there (i have 20 goats now and need to feed them).
