Super Bowl Monday???

We got the day off today for Super Bowl Monday. That's right...Kickoff was at 0400. Almost the entire JMOC crew showed up. We had all sorts of "football food" wings, pizza, smoked salmon (thanks wendy).  Still no beer though. A couple of folks used the day off for some much deserved Sleepin in. Those of us that got up, walked to to the JMOC in our first snow of the year. It is really cold out, but none of the snow stuck. After the game, it was so clear out that I went to the "tower" towards the middle of camp for some pics. They are from each direction. The top picture is East. Iran is just over those mountains. About an hour drive. The second picture is facing south. The orange building is the "house" right next to mine. BTW...it's still available in July. The third picture is facing West. Behind those buildings is Camp Zafar...the ANA base (where I work). The fourth picture is out of order but oh well...Those are called "onab" they come from the onab tree. They are a type of fruit that I have never had before. They are really chewy, and sort of taste like a cross between a fig and a raisin. I put the battery in the picture as a reference for size. Apparently they are not in Herat, They came from Farrah, a district south of here. They were a gift to me from an ANA soldier that I helped take care. He was the one with the bullet in his ankle. The fourth and fifth picture are North and Northeast. Just wanted you to see the mountains back there. If you click on the individual pics, they enlarge, and you'll get a better view. Have a great day and congrats to the N.O. Saints
