WELL IT’S ANOTHER GREAT DAY HERE. HIGHS IN THE UPPER 90’S AND LOWS IN THE 60’S. UP ABOVE I HAVE A GREAT PICTURE OF THE SUNRISE ON THE MOUNTAINS NEAR JALALABAD. THAT IS A HUB FOR ACTIVITY AROUND HERE. WE GET SUPPLIES, MAIL, AND WHAT EVER ELSE WE CAN ACQUIRE WHILE WE ARE THERE. THE OTHER PICTURE IS OF ME LYING ON THE HOOD OF MY TRUCK, TRYING TO ENJOY SOME SHADE. I THINK MY MEDIC TOOK THE PICTURE BECAUSE I DIDN’T KNOW UNTIL I DOWNLOADED MY PICTURES. THINGS ARE GOING GOOD HERE. STAYIN BUSY AS ALWAYS, BUT ALWAYS FINDING WAYS TO RELAX. I DO ENJOY ALL FEEDBACK ON MY BLOG, AND MAIL AS WELL. WE COLLECT ANY EXTRA STUFF WE GET LIKE HYGIENE ITEMS AND SNACKS AND PUT THEM IN A COMMUNITY PILE. ABOUT ONCE A WEEK, USUALLY WHEN I GET MY HAIRCUT, I TAKE A LOAD OF SHAMPOO, SOAP, AND SHAVING CREAM TO THE ASG, (AFGHAN SECURITY GUARDS). THEY REALLY LIKE IT. THEY DON’T GET PAID A WHOLE LOT, SO WE HELP THEM OUT HOWEVER WE CAN. THEY ARE GREAT GUYS, AND THEY HELP PROVIDE OUR SECURITY. GOT TO TAKE CARE OF THOSE WHO TAKE CARE OF YOU. THEY ARE ALL GOOD GUYS WHO WOULD GIVE THEIR LIVES FOR US AS THEY HAVE DAMN NEAR DEMONSTRATED MORE THEN ONCE. WE ARE LIKE A BIG INTERNATIONAL FAMILY. WE PLAY CRICKET WITH THEM AS WELL. I AM STILL LEARNING ALL THE RULES, BUT IT IS FUN. THEY TALK AS MUCH TRASH AS WE DO, BUT YOU CAN’T UNDERSTAND IT HALF OF THE TIME. THE LAST PIC IS OF THE “GENERAL” AS WE CALL HIM. HE HAS BEEN BUILDING THIS GROTTO FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS NOW, AND IT IS TURNING OUT NICE. IT WILL HAVE SOME TREES AND A SITTING AREA THAT OVERLOOKS THE CAMP. WELL, MORE TO COME. LOVE AND MISS YOU ALL. RUSS.
