We’ve taken in a couple of pets at our camp lately. Some of you may refer to them as vermin, but they’re all we have. About a week ago a couple of mice would sneak into our lounge area and make mad dashes from beneath the furniture to the crumbs left from the daily gorging. Since we keep all the real food locked up tight, we’ve all come to the consensus that they are doing us a service…so we’ve let them stay.
They get a little braver each day, and the littler one of the two actually sat and twitched his nose at me for about 30 seconds as I talked to him from 3 feet away.
Maybe we keep them around after seeing what the Camel Spiders can do to them, or maybe the heat has finally gotten to us, but regardless they know there boundaries and so far have been pretty well behaved. Our only real concern is what happens when the snakes come looking for them!?!?!
Thinking of summertime, beaches, and all of you. Don’t waste a day of it, I have to live through your stories for the time being. Keep the pictures coming, they are helping me keep my sanity over here!
Miss you, T.

Rules and Regs
As most of you know, I can't share what I'll be doing on a day to day basis. In order for our guys to stay as safe as possible, I won't be sharing much about our mission on this page. Instead I'll be using it to keep in touch with friends and family. There is a "comments" button at the bottom of the page if you want to get word to me on this site. Otherwise drop me a line on my regular e-mail address...it should still work for me in the desert.
UPDATE: A lot of you have mentioned having problems leaving comments because it asks for e-mail addresses instead of just allowing you to leave a comment. When you want to leave a comment, click on the word "comment", NOT the envelope next to it. The envelope is to send the blog to someone else in e-mail format. Hope that helps.

T,
Talking to a small rodent, by chance is she blonde with glasses and works in a library?????????
Oh, sorry, was that for public consumption?
Lesa,
You know better than that. It's brunette, blue eyes...but definitely with the hair in the bun, and the glasses. Who doesn't love a librarian? When did we have this conversation anyway...ten years ago? Nice memory1
Like an elephant!!!!!!!
I guess that should worry me Lesa...but I know you would never expose me in public...oh, wait, you just did!
