Camel Cavalcade

I promised Charlie and Luke I would post this. We ran into a temporary road block the other day on the way to Gardez. Can you imagine having pet camels? Well that's pretty much what these are...sort of. These people are Coochies. That's right...I said Coochie on my blog site. I swear that's what they're called. They are nomads that move their herds around and sleep in big tents with their whole family. Their camels, sheep, and goats just follow them around. Well anyway, after a few encouraging words and whacks with a stick from the Coochies, the impediment to movement was resolved and we continued on our way. Is it just me or are the two up front giving us the eye?

On a side note, communication is gonna be a litte difficult for about the next week. I was about to get into a discussion on time differences and stuff, but I haven't gotten enough sleep to figure that out yet. Suffice it to say, my schedule is a little different for a while. Also, we're gonna be doing a little traveling, so I may be out of the loop. I'll holler at everybody when I get a chance. Love you all.

You know, camels are just not the most beautiful of all God's creatures, are they?! Bet you never thought you'd meet up with a road block of camels in your life, did you?
