Here it is

It's getting much colder here at night. I still need to post a picture of that last hailstorm we had, it was pretty amazing. The other day some paratroopers jumped near our FOB, that was pretty cool to watch. I guess they were practicing, if you're on jump status you need to do so many jumps a year to stay current.

I've been investing more into some mutual funds, hopefully the stock market keeps going up. Maybe if I'm lucky, I'll have enough money saved that I can just retire and live on a beach after I get back... haha.

I'm trying to get our translator to find a cheap motorcycle for me to buy. A lot of the hadjis here have one and I'd think it would be pretty easy to get one. I'd like to just take it a part and put it back together again, since our maintainance is right here and have all the tools I'd ever need. Maybe I could lower it and put a giant aluminum spoiler on it too, just so I'd have the coolest motorcycle in the Paktika province. We'll see...
