OK

So here is the infamous camel spider.
This one is not that big compared to some that you've seen on the internet.

Now I don't like being around these never mind something that big.
So I don't believe they are poisonous but they are very ugly, hairy and have 10 legs.
How bout waking up to one of those in the morning.

So here ya go.

Hey

So things have been heating up here.
I have encountered my first sandstorm......and man it sucked.

I gotta say with every season that passes I'm not really sure why anyone would live here.
Each season something is just as bad if not worse than the last. Not fun.

So these pics are from that storm......mind you its 3pm. It only got worse.
And when i got up in the morning there was at least an inch of dirt covering everything.

I also came in contact with my first camel spider....yes they do exist.
I will post the pics on the next post.

There is no trickery here this is really what it looked like..there is even no flash on the camera.
I read somewhere that soldiers come home with about 1lb of sand in there system and now I know how.

So this time.....is the weekend...knowing what day it actually is and being able to enjoy the weekend is something i took for granted all the time....so enjoy your weekends.

post again soon
take care
