12 November 2014. A Photo Essay. Is It Siberia? NAW… It’s Just the Midwest USA… the “Siberian Express” Brought Record Lows

St Paul MN… are they heading for a hot Juicy Lucy (it’s a hamburger, you dirty-minded pervert)?

******

Bismarck ND… “40 Below Keeps the Riff -Raff Out”… actual bumper sticker that I saw in Bismarck many moons ago… betcha they’re still on sale!

******

Minneapolis MN… no, it ain’t Nome AK… betcha it was warmer in Nome!

******

Coloma WI… “It’s not winter yet! It ain’t comin’ until 21 December?” “Waddaya want… go complain to God… now, get back to work!”

******

Duluth MN… I always thought that you called somebody’s brother-in-law, who always had jumper cables…

______________________________

Brrr… bring out the woolies, snuggies, and long johns! Temps in the Midwestern USA were about 19 degrees (40 degrees F) below normal… now, that’s COLD. All aboard for the “Siberian Express“… via Calgary, Nome, Unalaska, and Cape Anadyr! Don’t forget the jug and don’t forget your mittens…

He is Risen, indeed!

Воистинну восресе!

My good friend Denise lived in Minneapolis MN for a while, and this image of last night’s Easter service there came my way, which brought her to mind again. I visited her grave at Jordanville last night and laid a red Easter egg on it. Yes… we Russians do that… we visit the graves of our loved ones at the Easter time. I wept…

Вечная память!

Eternal Memory!
