The Spirit of Adventure: My Hero --A Great American Patriot
http://connieowens.blogspot.com/2013/07/my-hero-great-american-patriot.html
The Spirit of Adventure. Tuesday, July 23, 2013. My Hero - A Great American Patriot. For the last few weeks, I've had someone on my mind. I have been seeing CSI New York on TV more than usual which sparked me to think about Gary Sinise. The video of his 60 Minutes interview is pretty incredible. It's well worth watching. You get to see the kind of man he really is when Hollywood is not around. He's not about Hollywood. At all. Not even a little bit. I love this man! Celebrates two years of serving our mi...

A few rules to remember during Ramadan. Most restaurants are open only after sunset during Ramadan. Expect celebratory gunfire during. One thin...

The Spirit of Adventure. Sunday, October 27, 2013. THE ABU DHABI EXPERIENCE, the Beginning in a Special Series of blog posts. I am extremely happy she asked me to be a part of her project because I am always eager to talk about my experiences here because they are so positive. Everyone thinks living here is a negative experience in an oppressive society, and I enjoy the opportunity to tell others living here is not what they imagine. Not the same. Something new. Yes, challenging at times (and may...Expec...
