Yesterday, I received a surprise message from an ex-colleague. In 1991, we worked together on the island of Bahrain in the Persian Gulf. Jeffrey is now in Texas.It was a Google search for Hamala Beach that pointed him this way. In a previous entry, I had mentioned the place because Jay and I lived there. Originally, it was a camp for the construction company which built the Saudi-Bahrain Causeway. As mentioned earlier in this blog, this was one of three places rented during my 2.5 years of work for General Dynamics and the Bahrain Defense Force.
The prior entry, written yesterday, was waxing philosophically about the power of blogging. On that very day, an acquaintance who'd not been in contact for thirteen years was able to send me an email message. What more can I possibly add?
