A Picture is Worth...


Our first photo from Chris in Kuwait gives you a good look at where the 2SCR soldiers are hanging their hats. If you squint just right you can see...well, ok...maybe if you imagine real hard you can see...

The honest truth is what you see in the photo is a temporary home for the soldiers of the 2SCR and nothing more. Are they air conditioned? Yes, however...Chris indicated the huts didn't get below about 90 degrees inside but...when the daytime temperature in Kuwait City, as shown in today's graphic, reaches 118, any relief from the weather is appreciated.

After seeing this, I promise to never, ever complain about our summer heat in Colorado again...how about you? Are we really all that hot, sticky and uncomfortable as we move from our air conditioned home...to our air conditioned car...to our air conditioned office...and then back again? We take so much for granted...

By the way, I have had numerous questions about visiting this blog and virtually hanging out with us...consider this an invitation to show up, get in the fight and contribute. 15 months is a long time...it will take us all working together to support the 2SCR and finish this journey together...are you in? I pray that you are...

I'm in sir. I'll watch, I'll pray, and I'll definitely be part of the fight.
