... minus 35, you walk on snow-white, sparkling snow in the light of lanterns, more truly you do not go, but move forward with short dashes from house to house ... near the house, hiding from the wind, catch your breath and run further ... on you felt boots, A pair of trousers, a scarf on your head, then your face is wrapped, eyes are lacquered, you have a hat with earflaps and a string under your chin ... you are going to school. ... on the threshold is a teacher with a kerosene: "Children, today there will be no lessons." There is no light "... and you run home with short dashes.

... one night it was decided to flee to Canada ... to save the Indians! ... cross the border decided through the Bering Strait, the narrowest point ... the route is drawn, measured by an officer's line ... along the Kolyma to the Ocean, then a little by the shore, and there's a hand ... crockery and crackers folded into a backpack behind the battery ... long ... I do not remember what happened ... Or we, having walked half a day on skis and without getting even to the nearest hills, got tired, froze, and decided that today was a training session ... whether Papa's trip ended and we were transferred, but the Canadian Indians did not wait for us then ...
... my brother and I had a birthday in one month and celebrated it to us always in one day, so that we would not get together twice ... that year they gave us cameras ... Change 8M! ...
... we shot the military aerodrome from above, from the cliff, with all the passion ... takeoff, landing, landing gear, turn, location ... helicopters ... security towers ....
In the evening my father showed me the films ... Dad said that nothing happened, but we will surely learn ...
