Jo Ann, Scott her mother and I took a four week driving trip to Spain and Morocco. Every time we parked the car, we were greeted by young men with tin dime store police badges, carrying a stick who offered to “guard” our car. In reality, the small bribe might have prevented them from smashing the car. In any case, we had a great time. Sounds like you will as well.
Say hi to Terry and Tucker and to all of your gang.
Happy Holidays,
Alan

Cliff can scam tourists and Oklahomans lost in Marrakesh and provide well for your family. Just don’t let him get into the taxi business!

No more wandering around looking for rain water. No more being alone. Lisa, Yve, or Wescott (who all have a head on their shoulders) need to watch you every second as you McGoo your way around romantic and sketchy streets. It’s all cute until you find yourself in a bin of Moroccan Frankincense.
