Well, we stayed at our flat Kyiv which we own until the end of October until we started losing power and Internet which we need to work\study online so the "Fear Factor" is long gone. Volunteered for months and have slowed that down a bit due to work issues. I don't rely on any help from the DOS either way being a former Marine from Jersey. My wife is a US citizen with Ukrainian\Belarusian roots and my foxhole buddy. She's a Cossack fighter if I ever met one. We are 25 miles from the Romanian border at present and it is very quiet here so far. We'll ride it out through the holidays and see what happens. Take care.
