Living the Dream

About Me

All about me in 100 words or less... I'm back in Iraq after a couple years off. I've previously spent a year in Iraq. It was so good to be back in the USA. I bought a house out in the Colorado country while home and finally started missing the travel and exotic work locations. So back overseas I go. I like to travel and get away into the mountains as often as I can when in Colorado. I like to 4-wheel on the trails, ride my motorcycle on the winding mountain roads and snow ski. I do all my own vehicle maintenance and I'm even rebuilding a classic Corvette. I'm a pilot (ex-Air Force type here), I hold 2 advanced open water scuba certifications and I'm an avid photographer. I'm happy with life. Get out of the house sometime & enjoy life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

A whale in the ocean. Any astronaut. I would like to go into space.

The Happy Home Owner

A day in Iraq

Heres a composite perspective on a typical day here in Iraq.   I sleep in a tent with 9 people. I say sleep because that is what I do there and to say I live in a tent would be an oxymoron. I liv...
