It was a very long walk - on foot from Zelenogorsk to Komarovo. The weather turned out to be good, and we were all very pleased

When I was a kid, I used to see ditches in this kind of lighting. It seemed to me that they were filled with blood, and that the reflections on the water were of some creature floating in it. Now, the ditches I grew up with have long since been filled in because the land is constantly being sold and the forests cut down. It depresses me very much. It's always nice to see those memories, even if it's in a different place.

In Russia people often turn everything into a city, destroy nature and leave piles of shit behind. A common practice: build houses outside the city to get closer to nature and at the same time start paving roads, cutting down trees and making a semblance of a city again, far from nature. Especially infuriating is the following: there are a lot of abandoned plots of land that have been ownerless for 20-50 years, but no one resells them, does not solve the problem of ownerless land, just starts cutting down and building up the neighboring forest. In our gardening community, more than 50% of plots have been abandoned since my childhood, but the country does not seize these lands to put them in order. Debts are accumulated on the balance sheet of the partnership, something is paid from the general treasury by other tenants who did not even know the previous owners, and for new tenants they just cut down the forest. I hate it.
