cjomomma, I've asked Bert to try to send pics of the quilts in use, but not holding my breath considering the conditions they are working in there. We can't ship batteries I'm told, so don't know how they'll have cameras operating now after 90 days in country.

By the way, SIL Bert advised my DD yesterday that the parts for the water pump arrived and they HAVE SHOWERS and laundry abilities! Woo hoo!! Can you imagine the lines at the showers?! Thank God for those men.

So glad to hear they finally have showers!!!!
When my daughter was there in Afghanistan, she was outside of Kabul and she lived in a "hootch" with 3 other gals. (Unfortunately one was killed by a car bomb while they were there)
