I’m stunned. This begins with Chris Gilmore, an old friend, long ago deceased from a brain tumor. I couldn’t believe my eyes. We spent much time in Essaouira, Morocco in the 80s drinking and sailing in his homemade sailing boat. He was such a storyteller. We lived at the Beau Rivage on the main square. He certainly liked his weed. His ex, Anita, I think lives in Kathmandu though I couldn’t find her when I was there a few months ago. Great memories. Thanks, whoever did this video. Parenthetically, I met George Whitman when looking for my girlfriend’s sister who worked there. She moved to Fontainebleau with her French lover so George asked if I wanted a job. I was on the road but accepted. I ended up that night running the register despite not knowing the French coinage. Good memories, now from Nebraska. But I’m getting out! Despite loving the cornfields and cattle the people are reserved, shall we say. Mexico, Paraguay, Morocco, Egypt and back to Burma. Cheers.
