Camels

I love camels. They are just the coolest! They are cute, and friendly and useful. And my all time favorite thing...they are always smiling! I live about 45 min from where I work. It's a long hot drive and it pretty well sucks.

The bright spot though is that everyday when we are almost to work we have to drive through a herd of camels that hang out on/by the road at that time of day. They'll eat out of your hand (watch for big teeth) or let you pet them. They'll even stick their head in the vehicle. They know we won't hit them (army pays a rediculous price for any camels we hit or accidentally shot on the firing ranges) so they have no modivation to hurry out of our way. There is frequently triffic lined up from both directions as the camels mosey about. They each have their own personalities and they are just so much fun!
