    Hope your husband comes home safe and soon!
    Most of the pictures Scott sent were of farms and several pictures of him, surrounded by Iraqi kids and goats, etc. He said basically the country is just trashed, although he could tell it had been really nice at one time. He was out in the country, so not a lot to see.
    On the other hand, when he was in Lebanon 2 years ago, guarding the embassy, he said it was just gorgeous and he was upset he wasn't allowed to go anywhere.

    Yeah, dh's first deployment pics were waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay different than these! lol Much more of the terrible conditions. That's why this one really blew me away. Thank you for your husband's service, too, Crankin. And yours, as well.

    FYI, Scott is her son, not husband. But yes, lets hope they all come home safe soon! But folks, we can do more than hope, yes, we can VOTE. So, get out there and VOTE to end this senseless war, that's wasting so many human and financial resources.

    LET'S TURN TEXAS BLUE!

    Thank you for the info. Since I'm fairly new, I didn't realize that. But fyi, I thought we were supposed to keep our political opinions out of posts over here? Do I have that wrong, too???

    No, you are quite right.

    Scott is home and currently traveling in Australia, headed for Thailand. How did I get kids with such wanderlust????
    The political comments don't upset me at all, even the ones I disagree with!
    Not all military families think the same way.
    Which is why I stay away from most military related groups...
