This is the first email from Ryan to his mom after he arrived in the Middle East:
That is a bummer about the pictures but the soup is going to help you feel better. I love you all and miss you tremendously. I am transient in the middle east for today but the next leg of the journy begins tomorrow. every were I look the color is tan the sky, ground building even the clothes that people are wearing every thing is tan. A group of us played spades a little while ago in the moral tent. my team lost but i was able to jump us up two hundred points by going nil. it was fun any way. we are going to play some poker in a little bit and the movine is "night in a musium" that starts at ten thirty tonight. the weather is really chilly we can see our breath. and when it is not sprinkling it is windy enugh to blow the dust in your mouth. it may sound like a misirable time but it is not. on every corner there is palet of water so you can not go thirsty. I will write again when I get to my destination.
This was my previous email to him:
Dear Ryan,
I've been thinking of you all day. You may have been able to look around base a little. Feel the air, anyway. Another climate change.
We love you. I love you. Vic loves you. Grink loves you.
Vic is making soup with the Christmas Turkey bones that he froze last month. He's planning on adding lots of root vegies. It will be another Froehlich creation.
Gordy had the first year of the new Dr. Who. He left it for Vic and I to watch. I miss it! I'm so sad they changed the doctor.
Gairm is grounded till he gets Cs. He's cheerful and sweet, and reading Terry Pratchet adn quoting him till we all go crazy. Mom and I are signed up for another painting class.\nI probab,ly told you half of this stuff and forgot. Did I tell you I wiped 4000 pictures off my computer by accident! And I use them in my web site etc so its a big drag.
Love you, Mom
