JennyW: Hello Everyone! Just checking in to see if anyone wants to get this group going again! Hope all is well where ever you live! 2024-08-14, 08:21:59

Oldiesmann: I'm not aware of any Jenny. Not sure why activity has died down on this site so much though 2023-06-12, 00:06:36

JennyW: Also, does anyone know other photo sharing sites that are Christian? 2023-05-16, 08:47:03

JennyW: Hello Everyone! I really miss activity on this site. I've been discouraged by photography sites where you have to sort through so much explicit content in order to see photos that truly glorify God. I'd love to see this site pick up again. 2023-05-16, 08:46:36

Janet: Carol, I am just reading this.  So sorry for your loss, glad your beloved Don knew the Lord and you have the assurance of his eternity  and that you WILL see him again.  Much love to you.  Janet 2022-06-18, 08:49:36

Oldiesmann: So sorry for your loss Carol. Praying for you and your family :( 2022-05-01, 17:13:05

Carol: My husband Don is with the angels.....Our family was able to hold  ourselves together for the last moments.  Juar rhoufhr you might want to know. 2022-04-29, 23:35:15

Carol: Thankful:  Don is home from hospital.  I found him unconscious with head outside on the floor and the rest was in the shower.  At the same moment, one son was walking through the front door to visit.  Two fire trucks came racing in and they took over After 2021-12-29, 22:01:26

What's the name of this restaurant?
On this one, I will guarantee this is the funniest name for a restaurant you have ever seen.  I'm not going to tell you the name of it (at least not right away), I just want to see if anyone else can figure out the reason it is sooooo funny.  In other words, it is written in the Cyrillic Alphabet, so figure out what the 4 letters are in English and have a good laugh.

I have no idea, Mike, but can't wait to find out!  I'm not familiar with the Cyrillic alphabet at all. :-[

Restaurant is named:  ФарÑ,

Here's a link to a chart of the Cyrillic alphabet:  http://www.colby.edu/library/collections/technical_services/wp/Cyrillic.html

Oh nooooo   :o :-[

The photos are exquisite, Mike ... this looks like such a clean town (city?).  Thank you for sharing.  :)

I looked at the alphabet and still can't figure it out.  I couldn't find the "r" symbol--probably just overlooked it.  I will take a guess at
"If I were you".  I know that doesn't make any sense! :)

I am wondering what gasteous food they serve at that restaurant!!! 

Okay, I will bite.  Does this mean the same in Minsk as in the U.S.?

Wonderful sharp photos!  I really like the one of the window and door. 

Sure a strange name for the restaurant!   :o

Glad I'm not the only one who finds it funny...  OK, for the rest, it is
Restaurant ФАРТ = FART

I almost got in an accident when I saw the name of the restaurant, because I started laughing so hard.  We wondered if their menu consisted entirely of beans :-) 

And no, it does not mean the same thing in Russian as in English.  It actually has no meaning in Russian from what I've found out, as fart in Russian sounds like Pukhnuut (rhymes with suit)

HAHA... Mike - Thats a HOOT!!
