Ken's Soviet Hat in Kyrgyzstan


I bought this Soviet winter hat while in transit at Manas, Air Force Base in Kyrgyzstan. The fit is a little tight but I don't intend on wearing it too much.

The Drive Home

The roads were all great considering... we made great time...
we did spend many hours in the car. Our first stop
was Independance MO, then Narth Platte NB. However,
inbetween we visited all the Church sites we could
and enjoyed it. I loved Winter Quarters...
perhaps because it was winter- but we did enjoy Wyoming alot.
The whole trip could have taken a total of 4 days
but we stayed a few with family so it was like a week.
The Winter Quarters Temple in Nebraska
Far West at the Temple site.

Us in Wyoming- you cant tell but the entire back seat
is packed to the brim with our plants & stuff. This also
wasn't the first state with snow.
