"But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance."- St. Peter. "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come." - Jesus.

Wandering in search of mushrooms in the Siberian Taiga

On the way there.

Disappearing into the depths.

Wait, is it in Spring or Autumn that birch sap can be collected as a drink?

The native Siberian husky.

Red currants, I believe.

Moss on the forest floor, it was everywhere.

We would have been completely lost if we went in there on our own. Baba Anya was our guide. Even though she walked very slowly we were struggling to keep up with her, navigating our way through the growth.
