Hello my friends.
I'm not a wizard or a magician, I'm just learning to be one.
Wednesday is a day for walking.

In spring, every new day is not like the previous day. Last week I took a walk along the embankment of the city, which is called "Alexander Green Embankment" in honor of the writer Alexander Green
This place is very popular among the residents of the city, especially those who live near the river. In the morning you can meet people walking their dogs, someone went for a light jog or walk.
On weekends, especially if the weather is very good, there are a lot of people walking along this embankment. But personally, I prefer to walk in the woods on such days.

I usually leave my car in the parking lot next to the church and start walking upstream. I take photos towards the river and still look at people. It's interesting to watch people. But I don't like to be intrusive, so as not to embarrass people. They have to be themselves.
I'm heading that way. There's an equally large open space there, that's where I'll stay for a while. The length of the Embankment is about 2 km, but I will not go to the very end today, because I need to get to work in the office.

If you look towards the sun, you can see on the other side of the lake. I wrote a report yesterday about a couple of ducks that were on this lake. This is one of my favorite places located close to the city limits.
To my right is the transit prison. Kirov, the former Vyatka, has always stood on the highway along which, back in the tsarist old days, criminals were exiled to Siberia. Initially, the exiles walked several thousand kilometers on foot and then they began to be transported by rail. It is in this prison that the directions of detachments of prisoners are formed - to the east, to the north, to the south and to the west, because Kirov is a major railway junction.
Yes, I have already occupied an observation post, from which I decided to take photos of the place around me.
When I see such a dog, I always remember the cartoons "101 Dolmatians". A very interesting dog. I must say that the girl owner of this dog was very interesting. But how can I take pictures of her if she was looking at me very carefully.
This stone is a monument to the victims of Stalin's repressions. Of course, it can symbolize the memory of all the political victims of the Soviet regime, but still the main repressions occurred during the reign of Stalin. The stone is a symbol of the hard prison labor of these people.
The modern Russian government does not like such monuments. Do you know why? Because now at the helm of the government of the state are the descendants, the disciples of the very executioners who staged the repression. The president is a colonel of the KGB, many governors and ministers have also worked in this organization. Therefore, all people who are trying to restore the history of those times, to perpetuate the memory of ruined people, become illegal in our time.
Many materials of those times are still classified as secret, and 90-70 years have passed since then.
The crow croaked 7:30, i.e. it's time for me to go to the office.
I think I need to take a walk here in the evening when the sun will shine on the river from behind my back and not in my face.
