loves his profession, he works with flowers, he put his dad away, he finished ninth grade this year, we sat and talked and most likely this year he will go to college to study plant protection, because we need to propose our joint work, let’s say, let’s not say business, because that it’s not a business, i can’t even explain what it’s like, that well, it should, because. this has been ingrained since my

early years, and as my dad said, i’m an agronomist, which means you’ll also go to study in agriculture, i’m involved in this business, which means someone should continue, daughter, daughter, yes, there will be a son-in-law , god grant that he is good, so that he can help, and my son, and we talked seriously with my son, and he agrees, we support each other, if i have any ideas , some desires to do. practically this is not discussed, everyone in the family knows that if dad wanted it, then it’s not discussed, that means it’s necessary, well then, of course, everyone expresses their pros, their cons, maybe i’m sometimes wrong, but in that moment, if i wanted to plant in a garden, then that’s it, i have to plant in a garden if i wanted to build greenhouse, which means we will build a greenhouse, and in the future we are going to decide again. we did well,

we didn’t do well, but practically everyone supports dad, i don’t even know how to tell you family, i won’t say family, because i’m very little in the family, there’s very little love, even sometimes it’s hard for me to show it myself, yes this is a secret, a spiritual secret that i give very little love to my family, very little, because you always always think how to do it, where from? buy, where to invest, where to plant, you always plant something, it disappears, you keep everything to yourself, you pay very little attention to your family, yes, this, this is a minus, a minus, when you have a lot of work, when you are busy with something, you don’t have time, you just decided to get away from this, from this bustle , from the city. just to relax, just to breathe

some air, just to calm down a little, otherwise somehow it all came crashing down, a lot of things, a lot of problems, everyday everyday life like this, all this is just to take a break, from children, from grandchildren, from worldly problems, just because of everything, this color is very calming, just the color, the smell. clean air tranquility, it’s just that these flowers give such a give tranquility, silence, tranquility, my wife found it on instagram, found it on instagram, we just decided to see what it’s like, what it is, it’s just that here you’ll see it’s very wonderful, here for the first time and as if we think that this will not be the last time, let everything be fine, let everything develop, so that the guys get everything, so that everything is wonderful, a gorgeous place, very... great, you can just come

and relax, even if only for a day, by two, by a couple of hours, just relax, everything is fine, my head is spinning from everything, i’m just dizzy from this silence, we didn’t even believe that this could happen, it’s hard to say about lavender, about lavender - it’s not like that, it ’s inherent inside , inside ourselves, you see, we don’t think about lavender, we don’t think, but we already have some kind of idea,

we do it with love, together with our family, in general it’s quite, because you see for yourself where you started , because we started, as they say, old people with... with a piece and ourselves, because there was no help, everything parents, grandparents were there abroad, and the two of us are here, alone in a foreign land, somehow to say, in our business there is an incentive to live, live, live again, because the most important thing is health and doing something good for yourself , for your children, and so that after you... someone will remember, at least sometimes, that someone was here or did this, this, this is an incentive to leave something behind.

the augustow canal, i tried it. culinary hits of dombrovka, meat feast in the fresh air. potato boats with chanterelles, forest queens in a potato frame. when going on a trip to the grodno region, your eyes run wide as to where to go first . there are ancient castles, catholic orthodox churches with a centuries-old history, houses in which famous people lived and simply incredibly beautiful landscapes, but there is a place that is simply... impossible to pass by, and this is the augustow canal. if you visit the augustow canal at least once, you will remember this place for the rest of your life. this is exactly what happened to me, because it’s fun and very interesting here. the canal has

a history of almost two centuries. in 1821, prussia introduced a ban on the transport of goods from poland and lithuania through its territory. because of this, access to the sea was practically blocked in order to circumvent the ban . a decision was made to build a canal, it was supposed to unite the nemon with the vistula in order open access to the black and baltic seas. the construction of the augustow canal took 15 years, but it... was worth it, in the end 18 locks, many dams and bridges were built, however, with the advent of railways , the value of the canal was lost and the need to float cargo disappeared, but as you can see, that’s not the story ended, the channel is still in operation, an amazing process is now happening behind my back, it’s called sluicing, the ship moves from one level of the reservoir to another, actually dropping several meters, believe me, this is very interesting, and i really want to try this, here are the lip beams, the places where

the greatest load was placed were reinforced with sandstone blocks. oak wood and iron shackles were used to make the gates of the airlock chambers. the bottom of the canal was made of both concrete and wood, depending on the type of soil. at the same time , they tried to ensure that the design was not only durable, but beautiful. the outside of the gates was lined with red brick. the coastal line was also additionally strengthened with sand and clay, and in some places even with turf. augustovsky the channel can rightfully be called a technological miracle of its century. so much work and attention to detail went into this. about 7,000 people were employed in construction. and for their work, local peasants received liberation from serfdom . so it’s not surprising that one of the gateways was even named “freedom”. i ate a little porridge. this is not about these people and not about me today, considerable strength is needed in order

to move these gates, this process happens more than once and even more than a dozen times throughout the day. today on the belarusian part of the canal has four shipping locks: nemnovo, dombrovka, volkushki and kuzhenets. on dombrovka you can take a heat transfer. in order to fully enjoy a walk along the augusta canal, i definitely won’t deny myself this pleasure. the steamboat has set off, now we are approaching the most crucial moment, the locking; you won’t be able to get lost here on dombrovka. all tourists are given these wonderful maps and you can easily understand where you are. we are here now, the dombrovka gateway is the most trembling one, crucial moment, we enter the cell. what it is? the level of the reservoirs is completely different: in front it is lower, here it is high,

accordingly, they will now drive us into a special chamber, the doors will close and we will descend to a lower level, well, further forward, only forward! on dombrovka , locking takes about 15 minutes, the ideal time period to enjoy the process without getting bored, and there is something to look at, many elements... locks and memorial plaques with the names of design engineers, wooden the columns and drawbridges were restored by hand and retained their authentic appearance. voz, there is no way back, the gates are closed, we are slowly descending. the water difference between the water pools is approximately 3-4 m, that’s it. in the dombrovka lock, in other locks of the vgustovsky canal there are even more, look, you can even see,

yes, you can see the water level, and you can see that we are going down, the width of the lock chamber is 6.8 m, you can practically reach the wall, in one grinding, volume water, which... this water was poured out instantly, but all this happens very smoothly. once upon a time , edmund viktorovich introduced me to the channel, who has been working here for many years, together with him the channel serves 24 people. can you imagine how much effort it takes to keep such a colossus in order, but they manage it perfectly, every one of them. anyone who has visited the augustow canal will confirm that you want to stay longer here. edmund, what is it like to live on

the augustow canal? well, you have to love the avgustovsky canal, that’s it. i heard that immediately after the need to raft cargo through the canal, it immediately became a tourist destination, a tourist mecca, in fact. yes, yes, we have a museum, this museum has old photographs, it is clear that in those years the canal already became a favorite vacation spot.

army, which was surrounded, the entire treasury of this corps was hidden, and this was gold and silver. try to find it. the first world war spared the canal almost no...
