Sand Storm

Life has been pretty uneventful aside from temperatures as high as 112. They all drink a lot of fluids. Recently they have also gone through some times of high humidity to compound the misery while the air conditioning in their room is broken.

Lisa said that last night Thursday night it rained followed by a huge sand storm Friday evening. Below is a picture of the storm from her room. You can see the sand starting to build up on the driveways below as well as darken the whole sky.

Lisa has been continuing to work on her "MCI's" which are required to advance. She recently finished the math course which she dreaded. I took a look at the math book while she was home recently and was impressed with the systematic and practical teachings. Made a lot more sense then any of the book I've had in high school or college. Lisa will soon start working on her Grey Belt, a part of the Marine Corp Martial Arts Program. She said she learned how to throw someone across the room using her hip. She made it sound like fun.
