sent a package to Iraq this week

[Ron Nash]

Good for you Marion. I have a friend over there as well and I need to get him a package, maybe this will kickstart my procrasstinating butt I try to send one out every month but it seems to slip sometimes. You get wrapped up in your normal life and then suddenly start thinking about what they are going thru and it usually motivates me to get something together.

 

For future note, I would shy away from anything that can melt. Chocolate, cheese, anything that won't last more than a few days, cookies, etc. Hard candy, suckers, stuff like that is cool but remember, it can get to 130 in the shade over there. Beef jerky, baby wipes, Crystal lemonade mix, anything to read, batteries, all big hits.
