Hello Everyone,
I hit the streets in the Green Zone over the weekend. I passed out toys and took some pictures. It's amazing how many kids
are on the Green Zone. I saw one little boy, called him over and when I opened my bag to give him some toys, kids came from
everywhere. It was great.
I took three backpacks with me for three trips (each about 1.5 to 2 miles). I think I will do
this each weekend when I have a good supply items (want to keep a lot of the good stuff for the injured/sick children which
thankfully we currently have none). I run in the early mornings but this added marching will do me some good (both physically
and spiritually.
Thanks again for your support and enjoy the pictures.

Often,
photos of Flat Stanley are sent back home. These help schoolchildren understand what's going on in other parts of the world.
"Hello Everybody:
Flat Stanley has been with me for a couple of weeks and he is doing fine. I got him some clothes (scrubs) so he can visit
the OR. He also got some camoflauge outfits as well.
Flat Stanley came to help me deliver toys to Iraqi Children in the area. He had a great time with the children."
