FOB Smart at 1945 - Saturday
Saturday night on the FOB, I am telling y'all, this is worth the experience. Food, air conditioning, friends, excellent work... Anyway, I really miss y'all and cannot wait to visit. I miss my son and I miss my wife. Life is so very different without them to interact with every day.
I had missions this morning and afternoon. We walked all over the old part of Qalat and drive and walked around a newer part of Qalat. I enjoy these missions outside the wire, excluding the danger - obviously. Today was not without the "excitement" these missions may bring. I had a small pocketful of candy for some of the kids I encountered. The kids that did not ask for chocolate or pens usually got the candy today. The locals seemed friendlier today too. It was a good day for missions. Tomorrow will also be a good day for missions. You know, I have completed over 20 missions outside the wire in a little more than 30 days. What a way to see a foreign country. What a way to mentor those who need mentoring, teaching, and hands-on training.
Tonight is movie night here on FOB Smart; however, since I rose at 0430, I am feeling the tired bones calling for rest and quiet. Maybe a movie in bed sounds nice. I wish Kimberly and Kaesen were here to snuggle... wait, I wish I were with them tonight to snuggle.
143, K&K, WAMHAS.
Good night and good day.
