Explored!Las Animas translates to "the souls" or "spirits". And what a spiritual place it is!Up before the sun, fishing for breakfast.You can see our tents in the distance. Temperatures reach well over 120 degrees daily but it's perfect early and immediately after the sun sets behind those mountains. Every cast would produce a fish, there were loads of sweet clams in this gravel bar and crabs everywhere. Scanned from a small print.© All rights reserved

*NOTE: Thank you so much to those of you who follow my posts. I wanted to let you know that I have not renewed my pro account, but I have started a second Flickr account instead. My original account, Humble Christ Follower 1, is now only going to focus of photos taken throughout North and Central Florida. Humble Christ Follower 2 (www.flickr.com/photos/198359916@N03/albums), my new account, is where I will now post photos taken outside of Florida, primarily focusing on Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina.BIBLICAL CONTEXT: 2 John 1:4-6 NIV
(from biblegateway.com)4 It has given me great joy to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as the Father commanded us. 5 And now, dear lady, I am not writing you a new command but one we have had from the beginning. I ask that we love one another. 6 And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------5 MORE THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:1. Like it or not, we are ALL sinners: As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous—not even one. No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God. All have turned away; all have become useless. No one does good, not a single one.” (Romans 3:10-12 NLT)2. The punishment for sin is death: When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned. (Romans 5:12 NLT)3. Jesus is our only hope: But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. (Romans 5:8 NLT) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23 NLT)4. SALVATION is by GRACE through FAITH in JESUS: God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. (Ephesians 2:8-10 NLT)5. Accept Jesus and receive eternal life: If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9 NLT) But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. (John 1:12 NLT) And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life. (1 John 5:11-12 NLT)Read the Bible for yourself. Allow the Lord to speak to you through his Word. YOUR ETERNITY IS AT STAKE!

The Ipanema beach in Rio de Janeiro became popular worldwide after the famous song “The Girl from Ipanema” was released in 1962. The song was written by Antonio Carlos Jobim and Vinicius de Moraes sitting at their favourite restaurant table seeing Helo Pinheiro cross the street walking to the beach daily.

Z52_1475 - Fishermen's Huts...
The iconic green fishermen's huts at South Gare, Redcar.The huts, nestling among the sand dunes, are similar to allotments, but for part-time fishermen. Ownership is jealously guarded, and there is a long waiting list.
The story has it that when the fishermen first approached the landowner (then Lord Zetland) for permission to build the huts, he granted the request, but attached 2 conditions - that women must not frequent them during the hours of darkness, and that they should all be painted green
An episode of the TV series 'Vera' was filmed here in 2016.
In the background is the headland of Redcar.

Operation Dynamo
Operation Dynamo was the code name for a military evacuation operation by the British Admiralty during the Second World War, in which 85 percent of the bulk of the British Expeditionary Force (BEF) and parts of the French Army were transported to England by ship. These units were encircled by the Wehrmacht at the Battle of Dunkirk, where a hold order - which has not been definitively clarified to this day - for the rapidly advancing German armoured troops opened a window of opportunity for the Allies to evacuate 338,226 soldiers, 198,229 of them British and 139,997 French, from 26 May to 4 June 1940, leaving almost all of their equipment behind. This largest rescue operation in world history up to that time formed the basis for Britain's staying power, because the loss of almost the entire British professional army could not have been compensated for at that time.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgS0GPQhzHgOperation Dynamo war der Codename einer militärischen Evakuierungsaktion der britischen Admiralität im Zweiten Weltkrieg, bei der mit 85 Prozent das Gros des britischen Expeditionskorps (BEF) und Teile der französischen Armee per Schiff nach England transportiert werden konnten. Diese Truppenteile wurden von der Wehrmacht bei der Schlacht um Dünkirchen eingekesselt, wobei ein – bis heute nicht endgültig geklärter – Haltebefehl für die rasch vorstoßenden deutschen Panzertruppen ein Zeitfenster für die Alliierten öffnete, in dem vom 26. Mai bis zum 4. Juni 1940 338.226 Soldaten, davon 198.229 Briten und 139.997 Franzosen,[1] unter Zurücklassung fast des gesamten Materials evakuiert werden konnten. Diese bis dahin größte Rettungsaktion der Weltgeschichte bildete die Grundlage für das Durchhaltevermögen Großbritanniens, denn der Verlust fast der gesamten britischen Berufsarmee hätte zu dieser Zeit nicht kompensiert werden können.
