An Ocean of Sand

Someone brought it up earlier, and others have agrees... thus far, Kuwait seems like I am at the beach, an endless beach... with no water. We went on a little run with the group of soldiers from Baumholder, and we ran far enough that all I saw was sand off to the horizon. Strangely, I felt as though I were back home in California, going for a run along the beach. The weather is exactly like California weather at the moment: 70+ degrees in the daytime, down into the 60s and night. Yes, I have yet to be here for an extended period of time, but as of now, I feel almost as though I am at home, a comforting feeling.

Of course, things may become different very quickly, so I will be preparing for that as well.
