Yes, we have verification of the Hyena status of the crack addict pictured below. However, new info from a comment gave us more info that Aardwolves are only in Africa. See all the important information you can learn from this blog. As well, we learned further that this poor creature was captured as a "pup" by the ANP and kept as a "pet." No wonder it's so angry. They say they're indigenous to this area. Moving on.
Some pics to go along with our mission the other day. Two of Sekula and me on some palace ruins and one of us crossing the Helmand River. I was the 6th vehicle and got stuck in the tracks of prior vehicles. Embarrassing for a JEEP owner. It couldn't have been the underpowered engine or the 15000 pounds of steel sinking into the softened river bed below me. No!!! It had to be my poor driving skills!
We ended up cruising a little out of our way into Taliban land for a couple of hours. Ironically, I think they were so shocked to see us in there turf it caught them off guard. We didn't get into contact at all. You should have see some of the looks on their faces as British vehicles and our Humvees drove by on these near impassible roads. They were priceless.
This area west of the Helmand has impressive water channels built for farming and the crops were stunning. I finally figured out where all the food came from down here, not to mention the phenomenal amount of poppy and marijuana that was intermingled amongst the corn etc. Lots and lots of marijuana!!!!!!!!! You know, it's very holistic and good for glaucoma!! I hear that all the time.
Anyway, enjoy.
