are now good to me. it's gone then yeah, of the the see the mountain. i've been up to the

big garage. i can do me that honor. i have beautiful memories from this phone. it's a place to wash as a way to look at the nature surrounding you. they are. they're handling the pain from like the beauty is still the way it was this, the last item that come on. i'm not quite that yet. i often take pictures on my phone and this will be my, the the,

you see there is to some beauty to be found. well, this is a lots official beauty. not the kind of beauty you're looking for. that's nothing but blocks of concrete to not have the name will continue on a true, but on this you'll find anywhere in my view t as in telling you about the same position right? oh, it stems from the song from contemplation and simplicity here. that's the tribute the

ivy yeah. sorta coverage but took this photo and replace the most sense. i may know while i am in need of a plane's heading times on the edge i the i just happened to run into this google drive and visit them and they went muslims, that they, we had cds in. yes, they were easily recognized. they were just covering and looked like i was a parent to travel somewhere for some reason the general right in the, i'm in their home environmentally. i the majority in the

most of the, so we finally made it to most so that's the museum at poc, you see that the steel bridge, you can see the city of the not rock creatures destroyed, but they've rebuilt and battle with ice as last at the longest and most so they could easily high because of all the narrow stroke that explains the incredible damage done to the silver when that's the kind. yeah, right. so much destruction the presence of, of this. what do you like the most about most? oh hey, i wanna shop around for you, my nostrils in friendly people in the climate. the food is good to. you never feel

like a screenshot. everybody. so welcoming on the printer we're. i only show for such a look of it. at the old town, it was completely destroyed. com and the mailboxes. you your mobile? no. there's nothing left. they rise to to unlock this year. the definitely that you must visit last february 20 to 25 years ago. maybe even further to our tractors and china t i that most of these to be on my way. and often they can still do that because the child on was that it was a place where educated people who is chevrolet at optimal, you'd hear more of

a people from whole list, listen to you. our guns is he needs, we had another community, they were all equal separate as at least a piece for me together the guy she shifted j. so he, you have most of your favorite city doesn't come off of the law. it's in terrible shape. we don't want to have a the

applies nothing, but really the kind of really the model started in regard to my that of mine. yeah. it reminds me of stalling groceries for germany off to the home on a. i sold the destruction in germany with my own eyes when i visited the g. d r. 1964. 1965. look, some things have been rebuilt, tells us we're still destroyed. verse hi, charlotte, i'm the how can you rebuild this a sooner look at my, during my whole towns destroyed together with the houses of people who became

homeless and left a house. mature on or is responsible or how i came. so i was arguing with the partition basset other very fine. fantastic. when yesterday, what happens like yes, so that's why i'm, we're kind of always like destroyed our country. it's gonna take that because he once told me that the birds knew about the 1958 cru beforehand at the window of scene. i know my credit arm, or of course they knew crucially, or they were behind everything that happened in iraq. and how do i combine it? but i thought i learned from a british photographer on the quote my leg. definitely not a problem because i had nothing to do with anything my that my legit from someone american. just because they studied in the us, figures for american eyes are instead, i'm richard. i'm ok. christ armada is kind of

a binary. they're kind of in the queue. that kind of colonialism is colonialism. whether it's british american, no rush at all to my data. as the result of all leaders incompetence, all they care about is power a human motorcycle drive. it is due to saturday, send for the copies for the just here the the the i would now you're getting tired of it. okay. let's see. i'm not, i'm not seeing, i'm just to motion the drain from what i've seen here. mckreetee aside, and i'm not, it's not for the is that why you didn't take pictures or you to go to that? i'm, i'm, i'm not, i've been very mind. this is the worst thing. it's ever happened to be

a rock of the some of them. and you don't want to take pictures, the void is beauty. so once you have that, i saw that this right here, just the antithesis of beauty on my son. what happened to the beauty of a rock, either jeremiah, i couldn't find a shred of beauty in any of this has no words for it. yeah, i mean it's in the, whenever you look at the photos from the marshlands, what we always say is having on us. why is that the lead

the people that are friendly, very decent, inhospitable. they welcome every visitor and they live in a totally different well, i never find the a month ago that i had deli descriptions made me want to go to for a visit, and then,

and childlike shamela show how they do. we can get me the chair i rather i assure her you speak so highly of the place and howard and knowing and kind of know if we could go there and meet the people. hey, hey, the the, to non fedex. it almost doesn't cover. you can get some sleep if you want. me. now has no time to sleep. the,

the, the just about everything right.

how do you normally that is a nice i mean i think right now cause you should have been had showed us the lock in law june is different than i can line the me it's ok to do a payment. i'm sure you want. oh yeah. so so that's funny with the seller from a miscellaneous job a jay of course as

a guy. yeah. the show or domain. i got a message and looks like it looks like it looks like it was concerning the result of yeah. okay . the, the

dining room has zeros, even less many pictures, events and eclipse. okay . read user error. this is the business of the rock. i give you these, your minus it's heidi, then this is easily looks like this. it's the same issue. ok very similar or sorry, 30 feet and the everything is just a bit more developed. type of that of not it's almost the same color. okay,
