sandstorm

We had a huge sandstorm the other night while I was at work. I was doing Mission Planning and someone said: "Hey dude, look outside." We went to the front door and could see nothing. Then the whole building starting filling up with dust and sand sort of like a fog had rolled in. Visibility outside was Zero. It was pretty unbelievable. Flying was cancelled for the night due to really high winds and no visibility.

Ed,
YOur dad gave me your blog site. I am his friend who lives in Brentwood. Your dad and I have been friends since Tennessee Wesleyan. Yes, we are that ancient. Take care. Is there anything that I could send you?

Ed,
Glad you are okay regarding the sandstorm. I did see that on the Nightly News. Must have been interesting to experience such a sudden change in the weather. We can get those sandstorms down here in Phx. Probably not as intense though as you had. You remember our monsoons here? Anyway, take care. Loved the explanation about the hair cut and mustaches, too. Ha! :-)

And I thought this first tropical storm of the season was bad...I'll take rain any day over the sand! Be safe and keep the sand out of your eyes!
