Great website OS! Do you have a picture of those earrings you made your wife?

You made your wife earrings? How cool! What did you make them out of?

I got crystal from one of the chandeliers in one of Saddam's palaces and took it to a jeweler when I got home. Made nice earrings.

Spoils of war, eh?

I'd think of it more as a "memento" or "souvenir."

I have always thought it was a great website Outshined :) Thanks for the updated pictures! Glad to see Paul O's page in your list!

Why?

I'm in Kingsport, which is in the Northeast corner, near Bristol.

Yep, the crystal was approved for scrounging. As you can see in the picture, the whole building was pretty much a wreck anyway.

And thanks for the kind words. :)

poor Rocky...what a cute pup!!

outshined: let me know when you're in town next and we'll have you over for dinner :) granted my house is completely trashed right now due to fixing up the nursery and finding a place for everything we've shoved in that room over the past 3 years, but my dining room table is clear :)

I enjoyed the photos of Iraq... very interesting! I know this is a stupid question but I have to ask: did you have to leave Rocky there?

Yes, we weren't allowed to take him out of the country.

But since he'd gotten used to being fed and taken care of, we left him with another unit that had just arrived. He was a good dog, rarely barked.

That's good. Hopefully they are taking good care of him.

I'm sure he is being taken care of Shantress.....you know about guys and their dogs....they treat them like children a lot of the time....

And don't let the thought of "military" make you think that the dog will not fair out well.....most military men I knew have hearts of gold behind the cammies and guns. I wouldn't worry about the dog....he'll probably eat better than most of the men. ;)

Oh, I didn't think that at all. I would think servicemen would take great care of a dog someone had taken in. Pets can be a great diversion!
