Leaving Today.

Today is the day I leave. A thirty hour flight starting later this evening and ending on the eve of my birthday. I'll most likely spend my first full day in Kuwait on my birthday. Its crazy that in a few short hours I'll be no longer in phone contact with my family and that I'll be half a world away. I'm excited and saddened at the same time. At least my allergies should clear up, no more apple and birch trees spitting out pollen; I don't think they grow in the desert. Its a good thing because yesterday doing convoy training I thought I was going to lose my mind. My nose was runny, eyes itchy and my head was pounding. I'll post some pictures that are long overdue. Here are some pics from pass and some from yesterdays training.
