9/28/06: Keystone, SD: We only have a little over 2 weeks left here. I'm ready to get moving again. Partly because work is getting fairly boring, partly to see different areas, and partly to see our daughters and grand-daughter again.

FE Warren AFB was our first assignment in the USAF, over 28 years ago. I still think this is o...

Do you know what an Arizona Dust Devil is? It's a desert mini tornado. Dust devils are created when air near the surface becomes much warmer than the air above.
