One woman who‚ as a child‚ lived on a boat and sailed around the world‚ admits for someone on the outside looking in‚ it might’ve appeared to be a dream. But she admits that it was anything but and was more of a nightmare scenario. Childhood is a crucial time in every person's life. The experiences and situations an individual encounters during adolescence impact their perspective‚ behaviors and the rest of their life. A happy‚ loving and carefree childhood is more likely to produce a well-adjusted adult than a horrible childhood. RELATED: Henry Winkler Recalls a Troubled Childhood and Won’t Make Parents’ Mistakes with His Family Suzanne Heywood lived for a decade – from the age of 7 to 17 – on a boat‚ the Wavewalker‚ with her father‚ mother‚ younger brother and a handful of crew members. Suzanne‚ after her family set sail from her native England‚ was forced to give up everything she had known – her friends‚ her other relatives and even her dog‚ according to the Huffington Post. She says that on the boat‚ she was trapped‚ confined to remain below deck. "While my brother was allowed to help out on deck‚ I was expected to cook and clean down below for hours each day‚" she said. RELATED: 2 Childhood Friends Lost Touch And Then Reunite 60 Years Later In Nursing Home As a teenager‚ Suzanne states that she basically had no privacy on the Wavewalker. "I had to share the one working toilet we had on board with my family and up to eight or nine crew and to share a cabin with adult crew members‚" Suzanne said. Suzanne Was Unable To Attend School Or Have Any Privacy While Living On The Boat Additionally‚ Suzanne's education suffered. She says that most of the time‚ she could not go to school. But this didn't stop her from trying as she attempted correspondence classes and went to school remotely. But that also proved to be tricky. Getting and sending off her assignments would be impossible if her father changed their port at the last minute. But when Suzanne's brother was 15 and she was 16‚ their parents left them in New Zealand. Her parents enrolled her brother in school‚ and she was to look after him. Their father did place some money in a bank account‚ Suzanne states.

I continue to be fascinated by Florida…. I love the Free State of Florida and the great people who live there‚ but I’m also fascinated by it. Mostly by the large reptiles you have roaming all over the place down there‚ who could eat you at any given moment. Terrifying place! But it turns out that’s not the only fear you have to encounter down there…. No‚ even if you dodge the Gators‚ you might just encounter an 8 Foot Boa Constrictor hanging out in the middle of the road eating some fowl! Check this out: On Wed‚ Dec. 13‚ #MDFR Lt.

Yahoo News reports the following: The Miami-Dade Fire Department recently shared a video on social media showing one of their specialist officers handling a large boa constrictor menacing some peafowl. The video shows L.t Christopher Pecori from the Venom One response unit using a tarp to wrap up the 8-foot‚ 40-pound snake‚ which is an invasive species native to Central and South America. Officials responded to the area after receiving a distress call about a large python on the road that was “menacing a group of peafowl‚” the fire department said in an Instagram post. The snake was removed from the residential neighborhood and handed over to Florida Fish and Wildlife. Here’s more on my fascination with the Free But Wildly Dangerous State of Florida: Alligator Trainer Jumps Into Tank…To Save Her Own Life! I have to admit something… Hi‚ I’m Noah and I have an addiction to alligator stories. (Hi Noah!) It’s kind of a sick‚ strange obsession. I just find them fascinating and terrifying all at the same time. Like a car wreck where you don’t want to look….but you also can’t look away. That’s me with Alligators. And Alligators live in Florida‚ and so while I love all my MAGA buddies living in Florida‚ I am also fascinated with people in Florida. How do you people live with these giant reptiles walking around all over the place? It’s terrifying! Like this…. Have you seen this? This thing looks like something out of Jurassic Park and it’s just strolling down a Florida street‚ no big deal: You people live with this stuff? Of course‚ the worst one was something that happened a few weeks ago… MAJOR WARNING BEFORE CONTINUING: readers may find this very distressing.  This is a tragic and horrific story. I love the FREEDOM of Florida‚ but I’m not sure I would want to live there. I’m both fascinated and terrified of all the alligators living in that state. Every pool of water‚ no matter how small or shallow it may look‚ is very likely to house an alligator. How do you people live around these things? Its terrifying! Sadly‚ one woman paid the ultimate price walking her small dog right along the shoreline. Why??? Ugh‚ it just makes me sick. This poor 85-year old woman taking her small dog out for a walk never suspecting it would be her final day. And what a tragic and horrifying way to go. I feel so bad for her and her family. It was all captured on video: Video captured the moment a Senior Citizen‚ 85 year old Gloria Serge was trying to protect her dog. She ended up being attacked herself by an alligator and killed near her home in Florida. #AlligatorAttackVideo pic.twitter.com/7vDyDNWvxE — Dominic Carter (@DominicTV) February 23‚ 2023 From Fox News‚ the alligator is said to have weighed 600 to 700 pounds! A video has emerged showing the moments before a 85-year-old Florida woman was fatally attacked by an alligator while walking her dog in a retirement community. Gloria Serge was by a retention pond behind her house in Fort Pierce‚ Florida‚ on Monday when the 10-foot-long alligator crawled up from the water and first tried to attack her dog. The surveillance footage shows the reptile swimming in a direct path toward Serge’s dog before it rises out of the water and scampers up the embankment in pursuit of the animal. The elderly woman was taken to the ground with the alligator then biting her feet‚ and then she was dragged into the water. While the woman’s body was recovered from the retention pond‚ the dog survived. “Please hurry!… It’s a huge gator. It’s huge‚ I don’t have anything to give to her‚” a neighbor is heard saying in a frantic 911 call released by Fort Pierce Police. “It’s too late. Oh‚ my God‚” the woman is later heard saying. “Did the gator pull her under?” the dispatcher asks. “Yes‚” the neighbor screams. “Alright‚ you don’t see any of her body‚ nothing sticking out?” the dispatcher says. “Nothing‚ she’s gone‚” the woman replies. The alligator‚ which is reported to weigh between 600 and 700 pounds‚ was trapped and killed by a nuisance gator trapper. And now the video. VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.

Wow! She didn’t panic‚ didn’t freak out‚ just responded quickly and smartly and instinctively….and she survived. But here’s what I want to know… Why did she need to be in the room with the Gator? That doesn’t seem safe. You can just throw some food in from up top over the wall or the ceiling or something? Or through a trap door? You gotta go INTO the tank with the Gator? Why in the world would you ever sign up for that job? You think your job is bad‚ imagine doing this all day! So glad she was ok!

The U.S. southern border recorded a record number of migrant encounters during a single day Monday. Customs and Border Protection told Fox News there were over 12‚600 migrant encounters on Monday. Eagle Pass‚ Texas‚ was flooded with over 4‚000 migrant crossings in the area in a single day. “That does not include the thousands still waiting for processing in the Del Rio Sector on Monday evening after a surge of migrants into Eagle Pass‚” Fox News wrote. “Government numbers obtained from Border Patrol show yesterday had the most-ever immigrants encountered at the southern border: 14‚509‚” Anna Giaritelli reports. “This is a phenomenon like we’ve never seen before. 26‚758 in custody‚” she added. “Over 14‚500 illegal immigrants have been encountered while entering our country. This has been the single worst 24 hours for our Southwest border in our nation’s history‚” Rep. Mark Green (R-TN) commented.

NewsNation’s drone captured images of thousands of migrants waiting to be processed by Border Patrol agents‚ as large groups of more than 100 migrants crossed into Eagle Pass throughout the day‚ overwhelming agents and resources. Many of the migrants arrived on Sunday. Eagle Pass was experiencing an average of more than 2‚000 illegal crossings per day before the number doubled on Monday. Deterrence and prevention has been frustrating for agents on the ground as those looking to enter the country use more unconventional tactics. Migrants from around the world are flocking to the U.S. border via freight trains‚ for instance. Sources in Mexico told NewsNation that Mexican officials in central Mexico are conducting operations on fright rains‚ removing migrants en route to the U.S. border. Despite these efforts‚ the continuous influx of migrants to Eagle Pass has not slowed down. Border agents called it the “worst day we’ve ever seen” in terms of illegal border crossings. WATCH: Border agents are calling this the "worst day we've ever seen" in terms of illegal border crossings. pic.twitter.com/56X39C6Cgk — Townhall.com (@townhallcom) December 19‚ 2023 Per Fox News: As of Tuesday morning‚ sources told Fox that agents are still processing and transporting more than 4‚500 migrants at the busy crossing point‚ with more than 5‚300 already in custody and facilities at 260% over capacity. It means that the tiny border sector is dealing with over 10‚000 total migrants‚ which is roughly a third of the entire of Eagle Pass itself‚ and agents are outmanned to a ratio of 200:1. Meanwhile‚ there were over 3‚000 encounters on Monday at the Tucson Sector in Arizona‚ where agents have also been overwhelmed and where Arizona’s Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs deployed the National Guard to help. “With this Executive Order‚ I am taking action where the federal government won’t. But we can’t stand alone‚ Arizona needs resources and manpower to reopen the Lukeville crossing‚ manage the flow of migrants‚ and maintain a secure‚ orderly and humane border‚” Hobbs said in a statement on Friday. The border saw a record number of encounters in FY 23‚ with 2.4 million coming across the border. September was the highest month on record‚ while October was the highest October on record. November and December‚ a time when migration is typically slowing down‚ are looking likely to post record or near-record numbers‚ as well as agents now routinely see over 10‚000 encounters a day.

The ground rules have clearly been set over the last three years by Democrats and RINO Republicans…. And I do believe those ground rules say that taking over the Capitol Building and showing your displeasure with something the Government is doing is an “Insurrection”. I mean‚ I think I’ve been paying attention for the last three years….do I have that all correct? If so‚ I’d like to alert the Government that a new Insurrection is currently happening at the Capitol Building right now! Oh‚ and it’s led by Democrat and noted Jew-hater Linda Sarsour….

This event has been labeled as an ‘insurrection‚’ echoing the terminology used for the January 6th events. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene took to social media‚ expressing her alarm at the situation. She wrote: “Insurrection happening now in the Capital!! Is that Linda Sarsour leading the Pro-Hamas Anti-Israel insurrectionists? Very serious ties to terrorists &; Progressive Democrats if it’s her.

This is a story we’ve been covering for a couple weeks…. After being hit by 1‚400 Earthquakes in a 24 hours period‚ and suffering ongoing rumblings for several weeks‚ the volcano on the Reykjanes peninsula in southwestern Iceland finally erupted. And oh my‚ wait until you see it…. Check out this short video from Meteorologist Kevin Lighty: Check out this video from the Icelandic coast guard who flew along where the volcano in erupting outside of Grindavik Iceland. pic.twitter.com/8xfxsfoAgd — Kevin Lighty – WCIA 3 Chief Meteorologist (@KevinLighty) December 19‚ 2023 Another video here: The volcano erupted after several weeks of earthquake activity near #Grindavik‚ #Iceland.

The government of Iceland reassures that the volcanic eruption does not pose a threat to life. pic.twitter.com/2DDw8bk7MF — Farooq Khan (@UlefossImir) December 19‚ 2023 And a longer one here: The Smithsonian had more details: A volcano on the Reykjanes peninsula in southwestern Iceland began erupting Monday after thousands of warning earthquakes shook the region for weeks. During the initial eruption‚ which started at 10:17 p.m. local time‚ lava shot more than 330 feet into the air‚ with some 3‚530 to 7‚060 cubic feet of molten rock emerging per second. “It was crazy to see it with my own eyes. We have had volcano explosions before‚ but this was the first time I got really scared‚” Aoalheiour Halldorsdottir‚ who lives about 12 miles from the nearby town of Grindavík‚ tells BBC News’ Oliver Slow and Marita Moloney. “We’re used to volcanoes [erupting]‚ but this was crazy.” This marks the fourth and largest eruption in the area since 2021‚ with its initial fissure opening stretching about 2.5 miles long. The volcanic activity presents no threat to human life or infrastructure at this time‚ and no flight interruptions are expected to or from the country. About 4‚000 people have been evacuated from Grindavík since November in anticipation of the event. Currently‚ the volcanic plume is drifting from the west and northwest‚ which may bring gas pollution to other areas‚ including the capital city of Reykjavík‚ per the Icelandic Meteorological Office. “Iceland’s authorities are well prepared for seismic events‚ which occur regularly as a feature of our country’s natural geography‚” the Iceland government writes in a statement. Volcanic eruptions on Iceland are quite common. The island sits along a tectonic plate boundary that separates the North American from the Eurasian Plate. As these plates spread apart‚ magma wells to the surface and produces enormous volcanic eruptions of basalt‚ per NOAA. The volcanoes along this boundary are part of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge‚ a roughly 10‚000-mile-long mountain chain that lies mostly underwater. Iceland is one of the only places in the world where the ridge is visible above sea level. As of Tuesday morning‚ volcanic activity had subsided‚ with lava flow about a quarter of what it was Monday night and a third of the original fissure still active. Still‚ Matthew Watson‚ a volcanologist and climatologist at the University of Bristol in England‚ warns tourists against trying to witness the eruption‚ report David Keyton and Marco Di Marco of the AP. The lava flows are only a few kilometers away from the Blue Lagoon complex‚ a geothermal spa and major tourist attraction.

And ordinarily it would be hard to believe a crack suddenly appearing and going through the center of town‚ but not if there are 1‚400 Earthquakes. And that’s exactly what we got today.

And 135 in just the last hour! JUST IN – Iceland now hit by 135 earthquakes in the last hour pic.twitter.com/MIPN1idv5W — Insider Paper (@TheInsiderPaper) November 10‚ 2023 END TIMES‚ anyone? CNN confirms: It’s one of the main draws that brings visitors to Iceland‚ for a float in its milky-blue‚ comfortingly warm waters. But the world-famous Blue Lagoon geothermal pool has closed for a week because of the current seismic activity around the site. The site is part of southwest Iceland’s Reykjanes Peninsula – a thick finger of land pointing west into the North Atlantic Ocean from capital Reykjavik. As well as the Blue Lagoon‚ the peninsula is also home to Iceland’s main airport‚ Keflavik International. Iceland is one of the most active volcanic areas on the planet. Rather than having a central volcano‚ the Reykjanes Peninsula is dominated by a rift valley‚ with lava fields and cones. According to the Icelandic Met Office‚ around 1‚400 earthquakes were measured in the 24 hours leading up to around midday on Thursday November 9‚ with another 800 in the first 14 hours of Friday. Seven of Thursday’s were of a magnitude of four or above – and all of these were on the peninsula‚ between Eldvörp‚ near the airport‚ and Sýlingarfell‚ a mountain just to the east of the Blue Lagoon. The most severe quake registered 4.8 west of Þorbjörn‚ a mountain roughly a mile south of the Blue Lagoon‚ at just before 1 a.m. on Thursday. Iceland’s new Forest Lagoon spa immerses visitors among the trees “It is the largest earthquake since the activity began on October 25th‚” the Met Office wrote in a bulletin on Thursday. “While the accumulation of magma continues‚ seismic activity can be expected on the Reykjavík Peninsula because the magma intrusion causes increased tension in the area.” Tremors can be felt from as far away as Reykjavik‚ a spokesperson for the local tourist board told CNN. Magma three miles down In the previous 24 hours‚ 1‚200 earthquakes were measured‚ mostly in the same area and at the same depth – around five kilometers (three miles) below ground level. “It is likely that seismic activity will continue‚ and be episodic in intensity‚ while magma accumulation is ongoing‚” the wrote on November 8‚ adding that “uplift continues in the area.” By Friday‚ the area was still active‚ with around 800 quakes already measured since midnight‚ according to a 2 p.m. local time bulletin from the Icelandic Met Office. A “dense swarm” of quakes started at 7 a.m.‚ culminating in a 4.1 magnitude quake near Sýlingarfell shortly before 2 p.m.. However it was also at pains to point out that an eruption isn’t necessarily imminent. “The fact that there are now larger earthquakes than before in the area does not necessarily mean an increased rate of magma accumulation‚” said Thursday’s Met Office bulletin. Friday’s bulletin warned that earthquakes of up to 5.5 magnitude “can be expected” as magma accumulation continues below ground. However‚ they noted‚ “At this stage‚ there are no indications that magma is forcing its way to the surface.” Here’s what it’s like living there — pretty incredible: Wow!!
