Update
I know it's been quite some time since I last updated everyone on my adventures in Iraq. We we are moving into summer. The tempuratures continue to rise and our AC's struggle to keep up. We have had several ineresting dust storms. It's like a fog, the dust moves in and settles on everything and stays in the air. It harkens back to when Mt. St Helens blew up and the resulting ash fallout.
I think our warmest day so far has been 115 F, which is plenty hot.
Work is progressing nicely. I have settled into the challenging yet rewarding job of being the Construction Engineer for the whole project. Right now that amounts to about $19M in projects. I am enjoying the challenge of dealing with the local contractors, many of which are trying to pull the wool over our eyes by charging way to much for sub-standard construction. But we march on.
That's about it for right now. I'll post a couple pictures in the coming days. So stay tuned.
