Description: On Friday, April 13, 1945 in preparation of their imminent surrender to U.S. troops; German SS troops, under the orders of a local Nazi official, slaughtered over 1,000 religious, political, and military prisoners of war in an attempt to hide their existence. The prisoners were led into a large masonery shed, in which gasoline soaked straw had been placed on the floor. Using phosphorus grenades the straw was set ablaze. Prisoners who tried to escape the burning barn where shot, the rest died in the fire. The German troops attempted to hide the bodies in a mass grave, but had managed to bury only 700 bodies before the area was taken over by U.S. forces. What the U.S. troops found was horrific. Over 300 bodies were discovered in the barn. One of the U.S. soldiers, Corporal Charles Overstreet was the photographer and radioman for the Headquarters Radio Unit of the 252nd Field Artillery Battalion during World War II and used his camera to record the evil deed. He was also there to hear the tale told by one of the handful of survivors. This man fell down while trying to escape and was covered by the bodies of his fellow prisoners as they were gunned down. He stayed where he was and played dead, even when the Germans returned and asked if anyone needed help. Those survivors that moved or responded were shot. He was still under the pile of corpses when U.S. soldiers arrived. Mr. Overstreet has used these and other photographs he took during the war to educate people about what occurred. This is an article printed in the Effingham Daily News on May 1, 1999. The article tells about a presentation that Mr. Overstreet gave at the Effingham High School about his experiences in Germany during World War II, especially the atrocities at Gardelegen.

Suddenly everything halts to a full stop
(in a screeching railroads kind of way)
And all I can do now
is listen to the whispering wisdom
in the wind and the water
patiently telling us to lower the pace
and surrender to nature.

The McLean House where General Robert E. Lee surrendered the army of Northern Virginia to Union General Ulysses S. Grant.
Appomattox Court House was the surrender grounds of the South. Other southern General followed suit.

"Surrender"
Tweaked it a little. Finished and signed. We all have to surrender at some point. Physically, emotionally, mentally. One can't hide. You have to let go. To hand over. Get of our bike. Slow down. Better sooner rather then later. For sure. You tumble down if you surrender only to fly to unknown
I named this piece Surrender because thats exactly what I had to do to create her. I had a totally different idea of who she was supposed to be . Sometimes I feel like my art doesn't come from me but rather through me, in the end they always become who they were meant to be!
This 26-foot-high statue in Sarasota, Florida was inspired by a famous photograph taken in New York's Times Square on V-J Day in 1945 of a World War II sailor bending over to kiss a nurse.

Finding the original photo by John Arther Carr offered the association with "The Wizard of Oz" but before searching it out I thought it was about the logo for "Les Misérables."

We surrender. Erin and I will be returning to the US in three weeks. Rather than spend our precious time hopelessly trying to keep the blog updated, we're temporarily giving up.
When we get back to America and have a bit of spare time, we plan on blogging the rest of the trip. Whether that will actually happen or not, we don't know.
Although it's been great to keep y'all in the loop, the primary purpose of this blog for us has been to preserve some memories before they all jumble together in our minds. Since we want to remember the last six weeks of the trip, we theoretically ought to be inspired to finish the posts.
In the meantime, we plan on spending more of our time in hammocks, and less in internet cafes.
I have never liked the game of Risk, I don't think I am ruthless enough. I never want to wipe someone out completely. My husband never had a problem wiping me out! Choice: fight on or surrender!

You say you have a plan for me
And that you want the best for my life
Told me the world had yet to see
What you can do with one
That's committed to Your calling
I know of course what I should do
That I can't hold these dreams forever
If I give them now to You
Will You take them away forever?
Or can I dream again?
Surrender, surrender you whisper gently
You say I will be free
I know but can't you see?
My dreams are me.
sometimes I forget that He is in control of my life. that what I want might not be what His plan is for me. and that sometimes things might not happen in the way that I want them to but He is still in control of my life and I need to surrender to Him.
"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope."
He has a plan for me, for my future, for now and for my life and I should trust Him. whether it's what I'm going to do later in my life or a test in school I need to trust that He is in control and He is doing what is best for my life. and sometimes I don't listen to Him and I wonder why everything is not going the way I want it to and everything is so horrible. but really I just need to surrender my life to Him. because He is in control, and He won't let me fall.
