Sand, sand and more sand

We left the cold rainy land of Indianna and arrived to the cold rainy land of Kuwait. Yes here we are in the desert and it was raining. It didn't rain very long, just couple of days and at that it wasn't very much.
The plane ride was long, but since I slept most of the way I don't remember it very much.
Until I can get photos posted, this is what I see: sand and more sand. Camels and some sheep.
It amazes me that sheep can find something to eat out here. I don't see any grass! I am definitely not in Ohio any more.
Another amazing thing is that it is cold here. All I have heard is it is hot here and now that i am here, it is cold! Not like Ohio cold, but cold. Of course, many of you are not up at 2 am or 3 am 0r 4 am doing work.
Well, we are here and I am out of time on the computer. Stay tuned for more.

Dear Sir... I was given the address of your blog by my cousin, Robin Caudill. I have enjoyed reading of your preparations for deployment and arriving in the Middle East. I am grateful for your service as you defend freedom in the far reaches of this vast planet. I anticipate your safe return when your mission is complete. Until then, I continue to look forward to the posts you make. Our thoughts are with you!

Hi!
I'm in Westerville Ohio (Spring Road Church of Christ), and we are praying for everyone serving in the military, especially those in Iraq. I will put your name on our 'list' of specific relatives and friends that we know of serving abroad. We are friends of Don Ash...that is where the connection comes from :)
May God Bless You and Bring You Home Safely Each Time,
Cara Rogers
