Obligatory pictures
As threatened.
No real story here. Just some pics for those back home, as well as those who wonder what Balad looks like. With no further ado, here ya go.
Me.
Eric, looking intense and businesslike. In other words, he's posing.
Tiny gecko on the wall over my desk. Cute little buggers. That one couldn't have been longer than my pinky finger.
It's called "shamal season." That's Arabic for "dust storm."
Another shot from the safety of the pickup.
One of the hundreds of kid letters we get here. These are great. This one, from Chandler, even features some admirable artwork. I think he has talent.
And don't worry, Chandler...we're whining.

You look too happy in your picture. Quit smiling so much…people may start to think you like it there. Capt Garcia has the right idea! hahahaha (kidding)

Yep! Chandler hopes you are WINING, and you assure him you are WHINING! Just like a Black!
Not at all, Aunt B’Ann. I contend that it’s just like a Black to explain my joke just in case someone didn’t get it. ;)
Am I the only one admiring the strange realism of his artwork (and perhaps thinking he’ll require years of therapy)? I liked the picture better when I thought the tank said, “Uga.” Note the lifelike flailing limbs of the “bad” guys. Better than Picasso, I’m tellin’ ya.

Cool pics Diana. Thanks. Eric does look pretty angry there, oooohhh, what did you do? :) Just kidding! :) Do you play with the geckos or do they just scare the pants off you when they decided to hang out for a visit?
