Family and rest

How do urban families rest in the summer? The most common amount is accumulated, and they leave to the south. Earlier in Sochi. Now to Antalya. Well, if you want another opposition - earlier in the Crimea, and now in Cyprus. .. But, in general, and this and that - the "leisure industry".In Gelendzhik, somehow, I had to go to a public toilet - that's how I almost puked. In Sochi - a sea of ​​urine. You think that waves in the sea go to the shore and from the shore - and everything is washed away. No, the water in the sea swaying upward - so that everything just mixes. A woman can suffice for trichomoniasis, even if she is a nun. Well, with a sunburn. .. Battling up to the southern sun, the young lady and strives to immediately become an old woman with wrinkled, charred skin, blisters and skin scrapes, and then scabs. .. And on the beach on the beach - a visual stench: wherenor throw your gaze, you will inevitably stumble upon such a crucifixion - a woman places the inner surface of her hands under the scorching rays. With her eyes closed, she'll see her own semblances. .. Everything is at an exorbitant price. So your northern money quickly turns into their southern.

We add the questionable hygiene of food in the dining rooms. Restaurants are mostly beyond the average reader's budget. We will add that we still have to get to the beach, and Sochi and Yalta - cities, with their asphalt and hotel complexes. .. Nnnet. There "I'm no longer a rider."If we talk specifically about rest, and not about tourism. And if it's about tourism, it's better - just to Paris or Rome.

Let's remember, the prosperous noblemen preferred to rest - where? Dada, if you communicate, then in Baden-Baden, and if you rest in peace, then. .. in the village. .. The fact that the nobles were exploiters, and sometimes they were tyrants, you can not throw this out of the song. But what they knewin rest, we will also take into account. I have long preferred a vacation in the countryside. And I will give a few comments on this.

Wooden houses( mostly) in villages are much more environmentally friendly than block houses in reinforced concrete jungles. Air is like the sigh of a child. And in winter the snow is white, like the wing of an angel. Primordial vegetation. Moderate work on the cultivation of garden. In a city senseless slopes and squats are called physical culture. And in the village all the stresses of the

are natural and diverse, and this is without expensive simulators. There are no habitual and disgusting canine feces - every time you vlyapyvaeshsya and wash. And chicken and goose droppings are perceived as in the well-known saying "it is good in the land of the native: it smells of hay and. ..".

Shed and veranda with tools, the possibility of creativity in the creation of fences, stairs and wooden handicrafts. I made a gazebo, covered the floor with round oak, pear, maple and apple tree - not brick, but not rot. .. Beautiful, and just nicer, no.

In the northern areas of the house is cheaper, and with them baths. In the south - usually there are no baths, but you can build, and not so "expensive", as near Moscow.

For the development of the child. .. Picture. Our two( at that time) summer daughter Katya watched as the hedgehog went into the barn, and behind it came our beloved dog Rottweiler Gela. .. And here is the story Katya repeated to everyone who came to visit us, even in theMoscow:

- The hedgehog went to the barn, he needed something there, and Gela followed him, she needed a hedgehog, but he was prickly, and Gela laialalalala, laalalalala, but the hedgehog curled up, and he had needles, and Gela was all barking.

Stories, choking with emotions, - I wonder.

Katya likes to deal with a dog very much. Gela, of course, a member of the family, like a cat. But the cat is less amenable to training. .. And here:

- Gela, dig a hole. Mom, you see, Gela is trying. The cat brought Katya a mouse. Katya tore it from the clutches of a cat.

Excited by saving a mouse, talked about it a lot.

- Maybe we should not take a cat to the country, - said my mother.

- It is necessary And who will save the mouse? Said Katya. Tell me at the mercy, well, where in the city is it possible for a child to survive

?But it's still that. .. In our pond, the frog was already swallowing up. Katya knew that the snakes had yellow spots. It also has yellow spots, so it's for sure. Katya louder than usual, began to call for help to her mother, and together they pulled the poor frog from the mouth of the poor horror.

We go along the big village road, according to what Lermontov wrote about "I'm leaving alone for the road. ..".Katya stops. And she forgot about me. I turned around - Katya was sitting, studying caterpillars, one of which she called a shaggy( the action of

had a lot of hairs - as if uncombed);and the other caterpillar is green, thick, and the head is oily and unpleasant.

- I've never seen such caterpillars, never. ..

A separate story with a mole. I lie in the garden, I look at the sky. Turned and saw a mole, finally he got out of the mink. He turned around. Katya is at the other end of the garden.

- Mole, - I cried to her.- Mole

- Where, where, where?- it was already Katya's voice:

I showed her and advised him to bring a basin. She rushed headlong behind the basin. The basin stood quite far off, near the hammock, and it was plastic, but bulky and rather weighty for Katya's growth. She was dragging the pelvis, changing positions and positions. It was an all-consuming emotion of interest. Pulling her pelvis, Katya, on my advice, took the mole with two bugs and placed it in the basin. I found a rain worm and gave him a worm. I poured a mole into the basin of the earth. Concerned that the cat can eat it, because the cat "uses moles"( according to Katina terminology this meant that she can eat mole).

- But now there is no cat, and Gela does not use moles, so you can release Gel.

- And suddenly, all the same, Gela also "uses moles", - Katya doubted."We should put her on the chain."

She went, called Gela, and put her on a chain.

- Let guard from cats and dogs that "use moles".

The story of the mole ended like this. Katya did not want to let him go to the hole.

- We will feed him, educate him, he will make friends with the cat, because the cat made friends with Gela. ..

But the poor mole in the basin began to overcome flies. They literally sucked into it. And Katya has reconciled herself:

- Okay, let's release it.

• I put the mole near the mink. He crawled into it, then returned, took the worm from Katya's hands. And again he disappeared.

It's all Katya two and a half. And she already knew many plants, recognized and called: tansy, chicory, buckwheat, bindweed, mullet, clover, St. John's wort, oats, nettle. She knew that tansy was from flies, and chicory was for coffee. In the city, all these plants can be seen only in pictures, and in the village - alive. ..

The village is also a village road in two directions. There are a lot of things here: the river, the buckwheat, and the horseshoe grass,

and Gela bark on the hedgehogs and dig holes, and the sides of the world. And the moon. And the Big Dipper. And sunsets. And clouds of various forms - the source of fantastic pictures. ..

Everything Everything Only in the countryside to rest with children. It would be better to live there. But we do not have enough strength to break away from some aspects of civilization: groups of aesthetic development, artistic gymnastics, etc. Well, to refuse to work at the State University of Management, where the doctoral dissertation was just defended, it is difficult. So, we have to live in the system of the city's work, closer to work, to the beloved publishing house ACTPRESS, to the radio with television.

I'm not now about education - it's a separate topic - I'm now about the conditions for the development of the child, about his impressions of the world. Immediately I remember with a shudder the playground near the house in Moscow. Giant iron swing with a complete violation of safety regulations. The child swung them and was shot down by them. They made a fountain. .. It would seem that it's good. .. But it turned out that it was not for normal people, but for local beer lovers, who are drowning bottles in it, having first broken them. April subbotnik does not help - it is not enough. I often say that it is purely not where they do not litter, but where they sweep. But it was not there. Tidy up, despite an ever-increasing fee for utilities, only at the entrance. Of course, the people in the district should be educated, appealed, educated, but so far - "in the country, in the wilderness, in Saratov."There - the rescue of drowning.

Katya once in the summer, remembering about her Moscow girlfriend Julka, whimpering - I want to go to Moscow. And on August 27, when we announced to Katya that we were returning to Moscow, Katya stunned us:

- I will not go. ..

- But you screamed: to Moscow, to Moscow?. .

- No, I screamed - invillage

We add that the price of milk, for example, is three times lower than in the city. Accordingly, mushrooms, vegetables, apples, berries. ...Let's follow the call of Griboedov's intellectual Chatsky "Get out of Moscow."I'll go look for light, where there is a breath of clean air. So far, prices for houses at 00 km from Tula and 300 km from Moscow - 20-30 thousand rubles. But only for registration, despite its duration, you have to pay for a five-thousand-hectare shantytown( but with a plot), and for a decent house - 6-7 thousand rubles. But, guys, it's a one-time thing. And estimate how

is worth one trip per person for one month on the Kara Nara. .. There is still a river in the villages ten meters wide And a dam with cascades of ponds. On the way to our Big Ridge, we pass a large number of cottages with small plots, with untreated, bare earth and tasteless fences( sometimes, however, with forging, but mostly deaf, painted with casemate fool).This is not for the intelligentsia. And not only because the intelligentsia was cynically circled around the slogan of creating a middle class. And also because everything has become very soulless and soulless. I mean lack of spirituality, not in the religious, but in the general cultural sense.

But we will not be so adamant. If there is a desire to go to Europe - and if there is money for it, then in winter - for two weeks] to Paris, and in the summer - still escape to the Big or Malaya Ryaboy, near us. We invite you to cooperation.

Well, if the funds are limited. .. Still, it is better to get out and buy on the accumulated 5 000 rubles 0year "VAZ" on the run, paint it on your own and buy a hut for 2 000 rubles in the Turgenevsky Reserve. It is 50 km from Orel and 20 km from the wonderful city of Mtsensk. A young man to work for and save such money will be able to and for a year. But you can also for two. First to the car - it's better to go straight to the "four"( there's more space on the trunk).Secondly - to travel for 00-200 km from your city( or 300 km from Moscow) and look at the house with the site. Under Paris, people huddle on three hundred square meters consider it a wealth. Russia is still immense. Unite with other normal people And live in peace with yourself, with your children, with people, with hedgehogs, horrors, squirrels, sunflowers and tansy. .. Eybogu, do not regret Especially cellular with their roaming now make everything so close.
