Build Your Own Deck In Iraq

I swear, give the deployed Army guys some lumber, tools and a bit of time, and they will build themselves some pretty cool toys. At just about every deployed location, soldiers start out with basic tents, trailer and buildings. But eventually, little additions like this nice covered wooden deck add a nice touch of home to the mix.

The little flags and Christmas lights still up 2 1/2 months later just add to the effect.

It’s a nice little place to kick back and relax.

I’m a weather forecaster in the Air Force, who currently lives at Fort Hood Texas, with my wife Ana (who sells candles) and 5 of our kids. On those rare occasions when I have spare time, I enjoy photography, golf, poker, and spending entirely too much time in front of this silly box.

    I saw the title of your recent post and came in here to tease you about “guy stuff”. But hey, what can I say. I love it. It’s beautiful!
