Si finds even more shades of tan and brown and gray at Fabulous Bagram

And so Si keeps wandering and looking for those splashes of color, quickly learning that for all the colors he's seen so far, Fabulous Bagram has many, many, many more shades of drab, like this yellowish tan behind him...

...or this yellower-tan, than any other color. Even though these are the same colors he wears every single day, when he pictured Outside while living beneath that computer screen, he always thought there would be so many more colors than the brown and tan and gray and the occasional green that he keeps seeing everywhere he goes. 

There are, however, two great things about all the low key colors around him here at Fabulous Bagram: First, Uncle Si blends right into his surroundings and can go almost anywhere without being seen by the Uniforms and Non-uniforms. And second, when he does finally run across another bright splash of color or something to contrast with all the light tan, like the bright white at the top of the mountains way off in the distance or a red and white pole, it makes him smile beneath his tiny plastic mustache!
