    Just got back from a multiple day trip to Kandahar from Kabul. Things went pretty well overall.... I think the National Color of Afghanistan is BROWN....maybe different variations and shades of it, but brown. Here are a few pics!! Enjoy!

    Cool pics, yep that aerial is definitely brown. Is there any trees there? How is the heat index? Keep the head down and stay safe.

    There are a few trees...but not many where I have been. Heat index isn't too bad in Kabul. we run 50s at nite and 70s during the day. Kandahar was probably 90s or low 100s..... not as much fun! I am getting spoiled!

    Is anybody talking about the wacko group that is protesting at funerals here in the states? Bet there are some good ideas cominig from your area about what to do with them. Got a few myself but all would get me jail time!:cussing:

    I have not heard much about him from over here.....I have my own opinion of him and his group.... I have ridden PGR 10-15 times, so I have my own ideas.... I think that, while they have rights, they are definitely stepping on the rights of others....and should be punished harshly for it..... who knows. Maybe the father that is suing will help put them out of business.....If they don't like it, they can always leave....I am SURE that any Muslim country would welcome them with open arms...... :roflmao:

    CG says they are planninng on having everybody out of there by next Year. Hope he knows what he's talking about - I'd rather do a tour of duty on the Mexican border than go solve someones elses problems. Not a enough fast food joints over there to suit me.:roflmao:
