Subject: Mortar pics

These pics were taken from the 8 mortars that landed in the
housing area. This room was in the “E” building about 50 feet from my
building and about 75 feet from my room,

 I was at work at the time, but a lot
of shrapnel hit the roof. The person who’s room this was was sleeping and
walked away w/ a little hearing loss and some scratches. The bastard
terrorists who launched these were killed by an apache an hour later!!!!!!


The other picture is a bunch of us in a bunker, during “alarm red”, these
are all over base and we have to go in them if we get an indirect fire.
Enjoy the pics and DON’T WORRY ABOUT ME YO!!!

And another email from Iraq (Darrell’s son-in-law to his wife):

I spent the afternoon yesterday with Darrell and Marilyn at their Rocky Ridge Ranch:

Marilyn took this picture of Darrell and me getting ready for a ride.

Darrell and Marilyn unloading the horses.

A family favorite.

Darrell says dad told him about using fat for red headed woodpeckers, it worked!!

A “house” guest.

Another “hummer”.

A red visitor.

True love!

How to get through 2007:

Sleep as much as you can…

Read books that you enjoy…

Play with fun things…

When you get the chance.. dance…

Enjoy being alive….

Get affection when you need it…

Get serious once in a while…

Forget about dieting…

Show a lot of affection…

Don’t get frustrated too often…

Maybe even change your look…

Be happy, above all, regardless what

your challenges may be… Have a great year!

May your troubles be less, your blessings more, and

nothing but happiness come your way.

Thanks to Carolyn.
