a hello from Afganistan
 

well hello every one every thing is going good, if you wanna call it good. alot of stuff has happened and a few close calls , but other then that im hanging in there. 28 days before i come home form 3 weeks off. man I cant wait til that. Lots of camel spiders the size of a softball. and lots of preying manits's too. I have one called fred who has been my pet and he is funny as hell he crawls all over me. the showers are gross and the food is crap and oh ya the heat is hot here too. missing my tank alot. other then that all is going good. the culture is is so different too.

At our place there is 3 bunnies here that we have as pets FRODO, Harley, Simone. i named them. they come and eat out of our hands and its funny as hell. well I dont know when I will be able to get back on here. so

ttake care everyone and talk with ya later.

Good to hear you are safe. Was at US border crossing today and all their flags were at half mast, a sobering thought.
