Well noticing that I haven't blogged for a while I have rebooted my blogging career with an artistic expression of a recent adventure.
My friend Tim got stuck in a river with his truck. We sent a tractor to retrieve him and this also got stuck. So Tim and about six guys with him needed rescued. We had an old truck with no headlights and a 4-wheeler. So we plugged a spot-light into the 4-wheeler and drove ahead of the truck with no lights.
So in the picture I am on the back of the 4-wheeler holding the spotlight while Troy drives in front of me, while engineer Oliver drives the big crappy truck with our boss Zaki riding shotgun.
Further notes on above painting:
1) Old English D on my hat just as in real life (go Tigers).
2) Troy is a big guy.
3) The 4-wheeler looks slightly like a wagon that would be pulled down the street by a toddler. Don't be fooled, it is a manly vehicle.
4) Oliver has a big smile.
5) Zaki is always on the phone.
6) Beneath the vehichles is a sketch of the road. The X is our base. The small man is Tim.
7) Brown denotes muddy spots.
8) The brown creature is a bush baby. They jump across the road sometimes. They look like beanie babies but they jump like Tigger of Winnie the Pooh fame. Seriously they are like 4 inches big and they could easily jump over my head I think.
Now that the blog is updated I move on to catching up on the emails I haven't replied to in months.
Ma'a Salaama (which means "peace out" in Arabic).
