Good Morning Lion Dear.

I was hanging out with an Alaouite from the Imperial Marrakesh.
The address in his passport ....

XXX Alaoui.
Royal Palace. Marrakesh.

This Alouite was a childhood friend of mine. And he went to college here in the US. First Texas. Then California ....

Anyways he surprised me one day ....

"I Envy You Saint John."
"How So Moulay?"

"You don't have to deal with a lot of ..... You see during the day I hang out with the little guys .... They all have problems
and they all expect me to help them. ..."

Saint John. "Hummm"

"Nighttime I hangout with the big guys .. They have different problems and they also ask for my help ...."

 

[saintjohn]

Hey. Remember my childhood friend the Alaouite with the passport address

"
XXX Alaoui.
Royal Palace. Marrakesh.
"

I always call him to wish him "Happy Eid" but one day I asked:

"Moulay. Tell me. How many sheep do you sacrifice?"
"One. The better question is how many do I buy. Too many. I have to buy for all the people around me. .... "

This Year Little Aya Will Spend Eid In The Imperial Marrakesh.

I was talking to a good friend Samir I met in New York from the Imperial Fes.
He is still there. He lives in Queens New York.

"Saint John. I bought a farm ..."
"Nice. So what do you grow on the farm?"
"Nothing. I raise sheep ...."

Saint John: "Interesting. Is that a good investment? ...."

Samir. "YA. Every year I sell the whole lot to the Royal Palace."

Lion Dear. The Big Boss. God Bless Him.

Lalla Meriem came and stayed a while in Scarsdale Upsate New York.
She used to walk to her cousin's house a few blocks away and
and would go to the Kitchen where Al Hajja would cook for her some
goodies. Al Hajja was the mother of a friend. She used to cook for us too.
Every Friday she would send her son with a Couscous .... Anyways
Al Hajja and her husband were dispatched by King Hassan to accompany
his nephew ... Al Hajja was a cook in the palace and the husband was a gendarme
also in the palace.

Al Hajja was from the Imperial Fes. A Great Cook ... Very nice lady. We were always on her mind. She made sure we ate well in that Jungle They Call New York.

The Gods Loved Marcia And They Sent Saint John A Message.

Marcia at age 65 died peacefully. She woke up and went to her "office" where
she usually pays bills and surf the internet ... Play games ....

It was a Saturday. Xmas Season. We got the call very early in the morning ... We booked a hotel
and we headed up there. I did not want to spend the night at Marcia's house. ...

Late at night we excuse ourselves and we finally head to the hotel. Beautiful night. Snow flakes started
coming down. We are on highway 174 in the Sierra Nevada Mountains .. Going nice and slow and
out of nowhere a Bear came out and stood on the road facing our car. We slowed down to a stop. The Bear looks
at us. The kids are excited. Siham is excited. I am excited. Then the Bear crossed the road and went
to hug a tree ....

I have been up those mountains zillions of times and I have never a single Bear. I have seen deer.
I have seen eagles ..... But never a bear. But that day when Marcia passed away, the Bear was
up and close ....

A Beautiful Bear. A Beautiful Night. Snow Flakes Trickling Down. Goodbye Marcia.

Well I was looking around and I wanted to take Little Adam to the river in the Sierra Nevada Mountains... And
I found the name of the hotel and the date Marcia passed away. God Bless Her.

December 23 2017. 7 Years Ago.



YUP IT WAS A SATURDAY.



Some Jokers think that I am just making up stories. That we never saw the bear that night. Are You A Joker?

 

[saintjohn]

Thinking of you Marcia. Always.



Look what I found. Ya I know it is not a bear. The mother took off. She was too quick.
