Looking at Edward's family pictures I for some reason thought of Edward Snowden. American who now lives in Russia, Moscow area.. Please raise your hand if you think Riley should interview Edward Snowden.
In the other news - we have elections here in Slovakia this weekend. Don't think for a second you can ignore election in sleepy little Slovakia. If things go wrong, I can move to your country, throw away my passport on the way, pretend to be Ukrainian refugee and become a burden on your social system - I warn you! :)

It is good you change your articles' topics, Riley. Your blog has been so efficient in convincing me that Russia is as hopeless as the rest of the world that, paradoxically enough -and I am very sad having to say this-, I have lost all my enthusiasm about that country. Why should I keep being interested in a nation offering as little hope of an acceptable future as my own? Thus, your efficiency as a journalist might turn out to be counterproductive. Beware of what you write! :-D
But do not worry: for the moment, I do not plan on cancelling my subscription. The service you have done me and your honest and good humoured work deserve my loyalty. :-) And -perhaps out of inertia- I still keep translating some of your posts, so that I can in turn help others. Although that may also be counterproductive, in this case for me: the last translation of one of your articles that I've published in my blog has earned me 4% unsubscriptions. People do not like truth.
Ah, Ed. How truly you read my mind. "Yesterday your attentive Moscow correspondent was typing an article about Russia’s completely predictable participation in the UN’s Summit on Sustainable Development Goals, but then it suddenly occurred to him: 'Does anyone actually want to read another article about space lizards and SDGs?' Highly doubtful." Thank the Lord (as they say in the American South) that you're teaching your young'un reality: kindergarten is a scam. You provided just enough pix so that I enjoyed the visit with you to see planes and sundry flying objects but didn't become too bored. I'm evidently living in the best of both worlds.
I've been to Moscow twice in my life, but on both those occasions this museum has eluded my itinerary. If privileged once again to visit Russia, I most definitely plan to prioritize a visit to this museum.

Very wholesome Riley, looks like a great day! Thank you to you both!
Yes, it is for chumps. Playing "hooky" with Papa will be a great memory for Edward Jr!
Thanks for the tour of the Central Air Force Museum.
Thank you. Great article about a great day.
Please let me believe that Russia is not part of the WEF UNO Gates Climate scam.
Igor Sikorski graduated from Kyiv Polytechnic and whose R-4 was the granddaddy of all helicopters.
Riley, your son will remember this time for the rest of his life.

I hope lil' Edwardovitch hobbit got an ice cream...
One love
Adorbs. Your fatherliness permeates all your stuff & is why I love it (I'm an old mum).
You’re an awesome Papa. I especially love how you informed your son what school REALLY is. He has a bright future with you in the picture❤️
A welcome distraction from the daily horror show. Thank you Riley.

Refreshing! The best caption for me, is the Russian solder-blogger 😄
Oh the joys of an outing with a youngster. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the personal touch, Riley, and thanks to your son!
Is there a hydrofoil museum anywhere close by? I think the boy needs to see those as well.
