Well, here we are in the village! :)
The village itself is located in two
side from the only one available there
roads. More precisely, there are two roads there, but one
of which the road is covered with asphalt, and from
a sandy road turns away from her,
which leads to the village. So,
if, walking along this village road,
look to the left, then right behind the houses
there will be a river - Mologa. She used to be
quite deep, now every summer
gets very shallow, you can reach the middle
without any problems, and in some
In some places, probably even go. in spring
Mologa spills and drowns everything
village :)
On the other side, behind the houses, passes
there is a highway, behind it there is a field, and behind the field there is a forest.
Cool forest in which absolutely everything grows
that's it. As I already wrote, in our forests
there were almost no mushrooms, but in Popovsky
mushrooms were found in the forest. Yes, and berries. But
more about this later.
Grandma's house was just on the left
sideroads, on the river bank.
You open the gate and you find yourself on
shore The view is beautiful, especially in the morning,
when the fog swirls over Mologa, and
the grass is covered with cold dew. K
unfortunately, I missed the moment and didn't
walked on this grass with bare feet. But
nothing, all this is carried over to the next
times. I really want to see how early it is
in the morning the sun rises, how it warms up
with its rays the earth begins to sing
birds and crickets chirping.
In general, it is almost paradise there. I would like
I was very happy to move there
to live, but I, and not only me, too
hooked on this life, on the city. But
there is almost nothing here that exists
there. If you think so, then here I am
don't need anything.
But let's return to Popovo. Different feelings
filled me then. After all, we did
something that sometimes no one believed in. Although,
to be honest, from the very beginning I had
confidence that everything will be fine,
and we will get to the village.
And we got there. And no one talks about it
regrets. It has nothing to do with any
economic advantages, since
it would be even cheaper to get there by train
Besides, daddy has a free ticket.
But... I wanted to trust myself, God,
of this universe, life after all. Not
still model it in your own
consciousness. Yes, peacewill help his
part; yes, everything will be fine. I'm into it
believed, but now I am convinced of it.
Also, I understood a lot, but that's what I'm talking about
will come later.
...I don’t remember very well how I went
that evening. Washed a huge watermelon
rainwater tank, people drank and
had a bite...
Speaking of people :) There are a lot of people there.
There are as many as three uncles alone. U
grandmothers have four sons, one of whom is
daddy - got the farthest from
homeland :) There are also aunts, numerically
equal to the number of uncles ;) These aunts and
uncles have kids who are me
cousins. And
those, though not all of them, already have their own
children... I'm not even talking about other relatives :)
And I only keep in touch with two
sisters, no one else.
The people are loaded with their worries. Life
makes you spin. However, it seems
everywhere like this.
Work in Pestov (if you forgot, this is
such a city, not far from the village) find
difficult. Majority of the population
organized a business in the form of manufacturing
and sales of country houses and bathhouses from
boards My two uncles are no exception,
for whom this work is the main one.
This activity was rarely profitable
a couple of years ago - who realized it then,
he lives nowvery good indeed. But
money doesn't spoil people there. Just people
there are good ones. As an example - one of mine
uncle who worked, and even now
engaged in the manufacture of these houses and
Banek. It brings in decent income, but
he still lives in the simplest
private house, bought myself a cool
car, TV and fax ;) Not at all
there is no comparison with our businessmen
and entrepreneurs traveling around the city
on wheelbarrows. It seems that money is for him -
just something that helps to live in
this world.
Here. I don't think it's worth describing each one
day, but here are the highlights for me
I will tell you about the events.
Somehow everyone threw me away, there was nothing to do
nothing, so I went into the forest. I took a bag of
knife, put on rubber boots, and
hit the road. I walked across the field and
there is a forest there. I'm coming in. The forest is familiar to me, a lot
visited there once. I'm passing completely
a little and I find mushrooms! First,
it seems like russula, then a few
chanterelles. Yes, that’s right, I found a lot of chanterelles!
In general, I walked, wandered through the forest, songs
hummed to himself. There was a light drizzle,
but I continue to walk through the forest. Gribov
I've already found quite a lot, when suddenly...
Suddenly I saw a dark lump on the ground,
making strange sounds. I sat down and
I realized it was a hedgehog! And not even at all
small. He curled up into a balland
hissed. I tried to touch him, but he
hissed even stronger, and at the slightest
reacted to touch on suspicion
with a sort of impulse, and on target to thrust
I put a few of my needles in my hand. I
hid. After some time the hedgehog
turned around and crawled about his business. U
he has a very funny face, and in general,
it was very interesting to watch him.
On the way back I found approximately
the same number of mushrooms as I collected before
this :) We were surprised at home because the mushrooms were in
At that time they were just starting to wear it.
Since we are talking about such
impressions, I’ll tell you something else.
Already on the way back, when we went to
Kotlas, in one place crossed the road
hare Quite large, I must say.
One day I noticed a mole in the garden.
This little creature got out
from underground, and could not find the entrance
back. I tried to catch him, but he
quickly ran into the grass. In 10 minutes
I walk through the garden again, and again
I meet this mole! This time I
I was determined to catch him. But do it
not so easy, he ran under again
some boards (which I later
turned around). Then I quickly ran into the house,
and took two plastic glasses. And... And
I finally caught this mole in them!!! Not
think that I'm some kind of flayer,
I'm just never a molesaw and
I really wanted to see him
take a closer look. It was the size of
hamster Black, long muzzle with
pink nose. The wool is so soft
lovely. I took it into the house and showed it.
Grandma said he needed it
destroy with a shovel, as he
eats roots of plants :) Uncle Oleg
told me not to do this under any circumstances,
and release the poor animal into the wild.
That's what I originally intended
do. I released him onto the grass near
baths The sun was shining and it was very hot.
Mole, apparently, too. I got a few
earthworms that he fed
this mole. I take him in my hand
didn’t dare, because when he had
wow, what teeth, they say,
spicy. But he stroked and examined and
fed. Uncle Oleg advised me
stop abusing animals and
release him. But the mole didn’t want to
or could not, climb underground. Then it was
it was decided to take it outside the garden,
dig a small hole and place it
there. Which is what was done. Only the mole from
I crawled out of this hole all the time, and nothing
all that remained was to provide it
to myself. He knows better what he needs
do.
Also, I happened to see a certain bird,
very similar to an eagle or a hawk. Along
the road on one side was quite
desertedthe area seems to have been there for a long time
they cut down the forest and then planted this place
small pine trees, 30 centimeters
total height. And not far from the road
there was some kind of column high
about one and a half meters, on which she proudly sat
this bird. Then she flew away.
There was another funny incident. I went to
look at the river. I walked quite a bit
far along, I noticed a man on a boat.
The nature there is wonderful. Here. Well,
came back, nothing to do, took it
ice cream, went back to the river. I'm standing, eating
it's ice cream, when suddenly from behind
I hear: “Bon appetit!” I almost
choked!! I turn around, and there it is
grandpa and looks at me. "Thank you!" -
I say, not understanding what he wants. He
and says: “Have you seen my goat?” I
I went nuts (sorry again for things like this
expressions :) “No, I haven’t seen it,” I answer.
He continues: "I'm here a woman on a boat
transported it, but left the goats here. I saw
you went there. Have you seen the goat? I
I answer: “No, I haven’t seen the goat,” and
hastened to leave from there.
That's it, there were some funny moments
quite a lot, maybe something else
I'll tell you something :)
One day should be mentioned in particular,
because he was remembered by absolutely everyone! :)
If I'm not mistaken, it was a day off, that's all
Together we decided to go fishing. And neither
where toanything, but to their historical homeland -
to the village of Mordasy, which is 75 kilometers away.
The cultural program included fishing and
cooking kebabs.
We left, in general, in two cars.
The bright sun was shining, and everything seemed to be
it was good. But as soon as we passed
a little further, the sky became cloudy and
it started to rain.
It was decided to go further. So what
Do you think the second car is deflating?
wheel! And not just anywhere, but right here
a place where the entire road is covered with manure :)
The smell there was indescribable, rain,
In general, the feeling is indescribable.
The strangest thing was that after
replacing the wheel, it was decided to move on!
In vain, in general...
We drove along the gravel road quite
long. On the way we stopped at some
relative. I didn't go in, but
someone came to see her. Then she went out to
looked at us all very much
I was happy. She remembers me very much
small...
Then again driving on the road, no rain
stopped. The road to Mordasy should
walk through the forest. Yeah, here's the lapel.
Apparently, no one has been in Mordasy for a long time
stopped by because you can call it expensive
it was difficult. Pits, huge puddles,
logs... Rally for survival, one
in a word. Before every dangerous place
went out andcarefully examined
the road. For example, a bridge over a stream from
pairs of logs. What's it like?
I don’t even want to remember, but
we suffered a lot. But this way
we drove through heroically.
There's already a field, there must be somewhere
village. Destroyed buildings, remains
technology...
We drive further, as it turns out, not
there. More precisely, we ended up not in a village, but
to the river bank. Although, it was all like this.
Let's go look for a fishing spot and
frying kebabs. Since everyone is uncle, and
daddy included, lived/were born in this
village, they knew this area. Route
Uncle Gena was in charge. We stopped by again
forest There was almost no road - all of it
overgrown with tall grass. We go, we go, and
we see a huge tree lying on
road. Neither move nor cut it
clearly it was not possible. All
got out of the cars, did something,
walked... It was raining... I, for example,
ate some berries and even found a mushroom :)
We drove around this tree and went to
river. We left. There are grasses all around. Uncle
Gena said that all this grass used to be
mowed, both on this bank and on that. B
In general, we went through these thickets to the river.
But the path is not close, plus it’s raining.
I wet all my pants, but for some reason I
I really didn't care about it :)We looked. The view is amazing, so
I haven't seen nature yet. But something is wrong
I liked it and decided to look for something else
place.
We're going into the forest again. In the end
We go to the clearing. There was a path leading from it
down to the river. The view is also wonderful. I
I even went to the river.
It was still raining, but for some reason
It was decided to barbecue. I was sitting in
car and, frankly speaking, was freaking out
(pardon the expression), as people...
makes a fire! At first I accepted
intention to cook shish kebab in the rain
joke. But with every minute the expression
my face became less and less
cheerful. Then, realizing the whole fact and
having understood the logic of behavior (we drove 70 km, and
now just like that back? Well then
no!) I cheered up again, but I couldn’t get out of the car
went out. Then it got a bit boring, so I went
into the forest, and there I ate my fill of lingonberries
:) People were drying their jackets by the fire :) Me
It's already become unnaturally fun :)))
In general, I spent quite a lot of time in the car
for a long time, until finally the people understood everything
the insanity of the situation, and that the rain in
it won't end anytime soon.
Of course, I did something wrong,
sat in the car all this time, but at that time
For some reason the moment guided me precisely
mind. There is no such thing now, so feel free
we can go there again... :)
Exhausted andwet, let's go
back. It’s clear that everyone wanted to go
through the village of Mordasy itself, see
what is there and how. We barely left the forest,
some semblance of a road, also not without
adventures. The village was located on
bank of the river, there are not many houses there,
but it’s clear that someone lives there! Uncle
Gena decided to go into one of the houses. We
We decided to wait in the cars. Here.
Uncle, then, left. We are waiting. 10 minutes
20... He's still not there. Let's signal. Via
he goes out for a while and goes with him
owner of the house. As it turned out, he
he is a pensioner and comes here for the summer. Yes
since there aren't very many people there, he told us
I was very happy and for quite a long time
persuaded us to go to him, and maybe
even stay overnight. Beckoned us
delicious soup that Uncle Gena willingly
confirmed.
And... They went into the house again! We waited
there are at least an hour of them, maybe more!
Exhausted, wet, they speculated about
what is happening there. Go
no one wanted to watch because it was
it is clear that the owner will drag anyone to
to visit yourself. I unexpectedly
discovered food supplies that, as they were
detection, carried it to the car
to my sisters. Then, when I was already very
I got tired of waiting, I went out and put on another one
jacket, defiantly took a knife,
whichwent for mushrooms and went
rescue Uncle Gena :)
I walk around the back of the house, look out the window...
They sit, eat, and talk about life. I
knocked on the window. After a couple of minutes they
They went out and talked for a long, long time...
Of course, I behaved badly again,
constantly rushing Uncle Gena to say goodbye and
go, but I, and everyone, were very
exhausted.
This owner advised us to do
So: go to the local tractor driver,
so that he would drag us across the river,
because it's closer. The river became shallow, but
The cars won't get there under their own power. A
You can easily drag them with a tractor.
Thank God we didn't do that... :)
Let's go along the same extreme
the road we came on...
We drove through this forest for a very long time, because
it’s worth sliding off some log, and
the car will sit on these logs with its bottom, like
then pull it out if there is no one in the area
one living soul?
In general, we are driving, and suddenly we see - behind
the blue Niva is driving us, and hard for us
beeps. We thought they were asking
give way to them, but don’t do it
it’s so simple, because there’s a bridge ahead of
several orgonomic tree trunks, and
You have to get through it somehow.
But it turned out that in this Niva behind us
was driving... This same guy from Mordas!! C
some friend of mine.Such people
ah! I have tears in my eyes
well done. Imagine two men
in the rain, slush, God knows what
road, let's follow us... A
just like that! And suddenly we get stuck somewhere,
so push... Uncle Gena is here
I remembered what we have with us
half a liter, and also cognac, and sausage...
in general, they, standing on this road, under
rain like two brothers, not 30 years
saw each other, drank this very
half a liter, but we couldn’t stop talking,
then we went to this Niva... Well, you
imagine, they grew up together, this
the guy knows all our relatives, hello to everyone
handed over huge ones, invited them to visit...
What is there!! He brought us gifts!!!
Zucchini!!! Yes, yes, he followed us, and
gave Uncle Gene some zucchini!
This is all very touching, already
more than six months have passed, and I still
I remember as if it were yesterday. Very,
This is all very cool.
I think there is no need to give in to the system.

Feelings overwhelmed me at that moment.
They say you shouldn’t live by emotions... But I

take them away from you. Because it's a given

Here.
In general, we stood there for about an hour.
forest, three cars... On the one hand, everyone
I wanted to return home as soon as possible, but
another, no one could stop these two
people you met. They also talked
long, we finished this vodka from plastic
cups, then these two on the Niva
escorted us almost to the road (at
which you leave the forest).
Yes. Uncle Gene's emotions too
overflowed. He remembered his youth
how he lived in Mordasy, how he worked, even
suggested that I move there and
organize a business there - breed
turkeys. As he said, animals are
unpretentious, in the morning they go towards the Donalong the river, they peck at the grass, after lunch -
reverse. One turkey is 500 rubles.
Here.
Me the commercial side of the proposal
I’m not interested, but I’d like to live there
moved. The only problem is where to live there?
At least you need a house.
Here. But from that moment until
at home, Uncle Gena constantly repeated
about turkeys :) I obediently listened and delved into it
in the subtleties of this matter, although it was
pretty fun.
From this moment on, I have Mordasy firmly
associated with turkeys. Just like my uncle himself
Gena :)
Well, we've finally arrived! How
everyone is tired. That evening I was like this
a bad person who didn't give
people to barbecue and go fishing,
that's why I tried especially hard in front of no one
don't fall :)
But at that moment I thought completely
differently, it hasn’t happened yet
a revolution in my mind. Of course it is
doesn’t justify me, but that’s just how it is
then it was.
The next day we decided again
go fishing, but this time closer
- about 20 kilometers away. My dad and I went,
Uncle Gena, and Uncle Oleg. We took an inflatable
a boat and two nets, fishing rods, fried there
kebabs... I must say, I really enjoyed it there
I liked it, the view is simpleawesome. I
and went fishing and wandered in the river (although
the water was cold at that time). In that
the place where we settled down into the river
a stream flows in. It is noteworthy that the water in
It's icy! But I also wandered in it,
although after just a couple of seconds a bullet came out of him
jump out!
We stayed there for quite a long time. Ate
barbecue, the uncles drank cognac with
chocolate, I got the last one,
although it was melted. At the end, when
they removed the nets and there was nothing to do, I
was specifically fooling around, digging with a shovel in
this icy stream. I wanted to find it there
diamonds :) To which Uncle Oleg approves
said: "Come on, come on, look..." :)
We caught a few fish, but even that
ok. Let him swim better in the river.
But we had a wonderful time.
By the way, after a while we
They settled down there, another man drove up,
either with my daughter or with my granddaughter. Also on
went for a ride in a rubber boat, went fishing,
told all sorts of different things until
pumped up my boat.
Here.
Well, in general, it’s great in the village. Only
I really appreciated it already in
Kotlas. This summer I really want
to go, but will it be possible? I think so
because it's worth it; village - here it is,
heaven on earth.
