Since we're going through a "dust storm from hell" tonight (pretty appropos since it's 6/6/06)...I thought that I'd share some pictures thart were emailed to my wife from a co-workers boyfriend who's in Iraq now...

Sand Storm, 26 April 2005. Al Asad, AFB, IRAQ

Better known as a haboob-"A penetrating sandstorm or dust storm with violent winds, occurring chiefly in Arabia, North Africa, and India."

Here it comes...

One minute into the haboob...and it's dark out!

Thanks to all the brave men and women that are serving our country...and have to endure this, too!
