Day 199 -I walked outside mid morning to find, what we call in Africa, a significant amount of precipitation. On my way to the shower earlier I felt a mist for about 15 seconds. I would describe my emotion similar to that of a heavy snowfall on a Christmas day. I just looked to the […]

Day 198
Day 198 -Shopping addiction is a real problem. This is not the first time my boss has had several boxes of stuff she ordered for herself show up. Today’s hall was an iPad mini, face wipes, and probably other girly stuff. I was joking the other day when I pulled a “colonel” when I went […]
Day 197
Day 197 -If you’re new to the daily photo, I have given up color for Lent. I got some great software by Nik that helps with black and white processing. I had a photo picked out and I just figured I’d try this one for the heck of it. Once changed over it really came […]
Day 196
Day 196 -The French have a base not too far away and some of their troops were here today. I thought their berets were interesting and when will I have another chance to photograph some French troops. So merci boys. -MARCH 20
Day 195
Day 195 -This one is titled, “ride back to my clu.” I just used a 3 sec exposure set it on the Ranger as I drove the 5mph speed limit. I can be abstract. It was either this or the bathroom. It’s coming sooner or later. -MARCH 19.

So when you things covered in a constant blanket […]

Day 193 -What ever I write for this caption has to be really really funny because people are expecting it. You are so old… that they took you to an antique store and they kept you. Can you imagine if I wrote something like, uh, “Happy Birthday. You’re great. Love, JOYO?” Hope it was a […]
Day 192
Day 192 -Just walking back to my box before bed and saw some of the workout gear on the field laying around. Nothing special just some junk and junk always looks good. -MARCH 16
Day 191
Day 191 -Today I picked up the mail and got this package. t contained what might possibly be the best care package ever mailed to a U.S. Service Member. Somebody could package this and sell it as “instant smiles.” I opened the box, screamed, showed my buddy, and was outside playing catch in under one […]
Day 190
Day 190 -This one might loose a little in black and white, but don’t know I’ll see fancy fruit carvings like this again. No special occasion or anything, just a Thursday night at the galley. -MARCH 14
