Just some old pictures....

Okay, these are some old pictures.(I took them in June 2010) so you are probably asking, "Why did you wait till 2012 to post some pictures from 3 years before? well this is my reason, and I'm sticking to it: "I have never posted them before, so I thought, here's my chance. Before I forget. Or worse, the end of the world happens".... just kidding! I have been scouring the old iphoto files for some hidden gems that maybe got overlooked and hidden behind ebay listing photos, and the 1,000 pictures of the sheep and goats and flowers.... I also found some megapixel dust....

I unearthed these artifacts that I thought were pretty cool. Check them out. Make sure you have some nice piano (or favorite instrument of choice) music playing softly in the background and have a nice cup of hot tea (or coffee, if you must) and enjoy these pixelated colors shining through your glass screen.
That's all for now folks! Okay, on to the real stuff. a.k.a: the real purpose of this blog post.

Now that is how you are supposed to spell "licorice." smile. It makes sense to spell something the way you pronounce it doesn't it?

No, this isn't Boston, this is Bristol, England. Maybe some US expats setting up shop on the other side of the pond to remind themselves of home.

This man was preaching the Gospel out in the open air. Imagine that! He has courage, I can tell you.

These mugs' cartoons are funny and true.

Looks like some sort of meeting going on here. Maybe a college group studying humanities and social science in the park?

Some Cath Kidston fabric I bought and a notebook of stickers.

I think some football games (more commonly called soccer in the US) were going on.

Showing some team spirit.

Photos from England

Stonehenge My dad and I went along with a tour group from the US to learn more about the history of Operation Tiger. We got to meet two American veterans who also came to England. I learned the history of Operation Tiger which I had not been aware of before. This year is the 70th Anniversary of Operation Tiger. They had a big ceremony at Slapton Sands near a tank that was recovered after the war. Exercise Tiger , or Operation Tiger , was the code name for one in a series of large-scale rehearsals for the D-Day invasion of Normandy , which took place on Slapton Sands or Slapton Beach in Devon . (In late 1943) Coordination and communication problems resulted in friendly fire deaths during the exercise, and an Allied convoy positioning itself for the landing was attacked by E-boats of the German Kriegsmarine , resulting in the deaths of 946 American servicemen.

Jesus Christ - and We

Jesus Christ- and We Christ has no hands but our hands , to do His work today; He has no feet but our feet to lead men in His way; He has no tongue but our tongues to tell men how He died, He has no help but our help to bring them to His side. We are the only Bible, the careless world will read; We are the sinners' gospel, we are the scoffers' creed; We are the Lord's last message, Written in deed and word- what if the line is crooked, what if the type is blurred?

If we let Him live through us we will stand out a
