Atmosphere:
Go meet your neighbors at the grocery store. It will be a bread and milk day with 1 to 3 inches of snow predicted for tomorrow. Cloudy today with a high near 45.
Maybe my way of passing along weather information is a little too nice for your taste? Maybe you like things a little more salty? Well, here you go. (Don’t click if you find certain words offensive.)
Art:
As a painter, Zhukovsky left a legacy from capturing Russian landscapes and pre-revolutionary sites and the interior of Russian estate houses. His social predisposition left him skeptical of the Bolshevik revolution, and in 1923 he left the Soviet Union for his ancestral homeland Poland, then already an independent country.
