kuwait has a ton of things to do and see. im living here now. havent seen much yet due to working all the time so i will be updating this alot. the most danger here is driving. there is alot of growth here. this country is rich from the oil and are now able sense the tailban is no longer here able to live a great life with hardly any locals working. the kuwaits that do work never show up and get paid or they just work for a few hours and leave.

I had always wanted to see the Kuwait Towers in person.  The architecture of them is amazing to me!  I finally set out to do just that on May 31, 2006.   I would also visit the Kuwait Hard Rock Cafe while there. I departed Indy to Philadelphia in the early afternoon on a Northw…

A beautiful modern country bounded by Saudi Arabia on the south and by Iraq on the north and west. The capital is Al-Kuwait, or Kuwait. It was attacked and overrun by Iraq on 2 August 1990. Following several weeks of aerial bombardment, a US-led, UN coalition began a ground assault on 23 February 1…

To leave Iraq to go on R&R is not a easy or simple process, for those of you familiar with the US Military you know to expect 'Murphy's Law', what can go wrong will go wrong, lol. Day 1 has been a hell of a ride and we weren't in continental Europe yet. Last night we showed up at out 2200 man…

YEAH THE FRIGGIN SANDBOX WAS AN OVEN to say the least! Most people could handle it but the duststorms and sandflies were bad!  This was one place I was ready to get out of. At least it was a short trip to Dubai in the UAE to get away from it all.

Its not really a vacation but I can't live in a country for four months and not say anything about it!

I have never hated sand as much as I do today... I never want to walk on it again...I'm never going to the beach again either!  

(mugrubi) had a birthday on July 25th and I looked at his profile photo and thought, I could give him a gift by changing his shot. I downloaded the shot and did a little lighting and color changes and I hope he is happy with the outcome.  Happy Birthday!!   If this is a photo of you or…

2005 What a year!  Rushed through Flight Engineer school and training, my first solo flight....IN COMBAT!  Four months in the desert heat and sand moving people and cargo, this this is when and where I grew up.  I saw people, places, and things, and I even had my life pass before my …

I arrived at the airport to find an escort holding my name. Maybe its just a little embarressing for a traveller to have someone help them through the customs/visa line, but I soon got over my pride by getting in the front of all lines and by not directly paying for anything (as the company was hir…

Okay, I wanted to post some new pics but didn't want to write a Blog about everyone of them because they are from different places and different times. Every pic has a story of it's own so feel free to ask about any of them and I will be more than glad to answer. :)

I was in Kuwait for a few months in the summer of 2004. I was able to get out and see Kuwait City a couple times. It is something else to drive by a herd of camels and then McDonalds.
