baghdad, iraq
hello all,
just wanted to write a quick note and tell everyone that i fianally made it to baghdad. the jvb is a really nice place to be. the people here are pretty nice and my job is goin to be great. on my free time i can go fishin right out my back porch and hit golf balls out into the lake. when i get a chance i will take some pictures and put them up here. it is hard to believe that god has blessed me so much and putin me up here. it is also hard to believe that i am in a combat zone and not at a resort. hope you all are doin great and i will write later

camp buerhan, kuwait
we made it to camp buerhan in kuwait, i think this is how it is spelled. to whole trip took 21hrs. we flew from georgia to new foundland canada, then to iceland, then to germany, and finally ended up in kuwait. we were up for about 40hr until we finally got some sleep. it took only about a coupld of days to get used to the time change, we tried to stay up all day then sleep at night to get used to the time change and jet lag, it seemed to work.
it hasnt been too bad here, two days ago they had a country band here playin music for about an hour and so we got a milkshake from baskin robin and just sat there for about an hour and a half just enjoyen ourselves and it felt like bein back home.
we will be hitten some ranges in the next couple of days and the weather here is about 110 to 125, it sounds hot but it is dry heat so it isnt too bad. tomarrow or the next day they are calling for a sand storm to hit so that will be exciting to see.
i hope all is well for everyone back home, Erika i love you, and i send my love out to everyone else, thank you for all your prayers, and keep all my fellow soilders in your prayers as well
love you all
