A 3 hour tour!! A 3 HOUR TOUR!!!!




No it's not Gilligans Island, but Saddam's Island, or USED to be Saddams' Island!
I knew one of the routes I use for my running I had to get back around with my camera, so why not on a Sunday, take a few hours and walk it with the camera. So I did. I got tons of pics that I had always wanted to get a different viewpoint of! So I set off on the trek around the lake!
Now of course when I go around this route of the lake my pit stop always is the Australian pool.
Now as for my Snake Bites and my thoughts on things these days, well, I don't really feel like thinking today, and I don't have any controversy in my mind, so I will not do Snake Bites today, and I have not done the for awhile, so if you liked them I guess I will have to do them as the ideas come up!
I did a VTC(video teleconference call) with Missy and the kids last night, and that is always cool to see them and talked to them. To see the sexiness of my wife and how much the children are growing is very cool.
I guess tommorrow is Halloween, and I remember last year I went to a party and our friend's Rod and Denises, and I WON best cosume as I dressed up in my BDU's and put all my equipment on and camo'd up. Of course this Halloween I am an Army guy AGAIN, but really no other options can be found for a costume! That is cool though, I already ate all the Halloween candy my wife sent!
Have a great Sunday!!
Later,
Erik

I know you don't make money off your site...my wish? That EVERY person that visits via my blog will comment, just to tell ya thanks for all you do. My new favorite saying? "IF YOU CAN READ THIS THANK A TEACHER, IF YOU CAN READ IT IN ENGLISH...THANK A SOLDIER!!" Err...Thanks Erik!! An oldie, but a definite goodie!!! (And when you get back and get your plans in order, you'll get the donations, for your VERY worthy cause!!)
Wonderful pictures Erik. Thanks for sharing them with up.
Erik,
How great that you and your family got to see each other - you must be so proud of them - and I KNOW they are proud of you. I am too. The pictures are great and you must be seeing everything through a slightly different perspective now that you are looking toward home.
I will follow Momsgoneloony's example and say THANK YOU. People like you, my children, and all who fight with you and have fought before you are why there is another oldie but goodie which is on a magnet on my car:
"Land of the Free
because of the brave."
God bless you my friend.
Hey Erik -
Was thinking of you and Missy today -- I'm excited to read that you got to video conference with them!! That's great. Hope your wife and kids are in good spirits waiting for your return; let me know if I can help your family out in any way.

I am so glad that you got to talk to Mis & the kids... how awesome is that!
Thanks again for sharing your pictures! Have a good day and Stay safe- if you need some more Halloween candy let me know - we are supposed to have close to 500 kids come on Monday night - but the weather looks like it will be uncooperative...sooo we may have lots of leftovers - (any favs?) stay safe!
I guess some places in Iraq do look like paradise...you know, "The Garden of Eden".
Happy Halloween Erik...BOO!
Glad you got to talk to Missy and the kids. Love the pictures, keep them coming. Have a good and safe day.

As always I enjoy the pictures!
Hey, thanks for the pictures and view of your life over there. I'm sure your family misses you. Be sure we appreciate all you are doing and the position it puts your family in as well. Bless your Heart. I'm SO glad you have the technology to speak and see your loved ones while you are away. Again, my appreciation to you and all of our troops over there and around the world.
