[at-l] Back in Damascus (plus Goodbye Mr. Thomas)

[Linda Benschop]

Mara,

Where are you staying...Suzanne's?  As you know, we are just outside of 
Damascus and come in town about every other day to get mail, go to the 
library etc.   Hope you are feeling better and can get back on the trail 
soon.
Hugs, Hummingbird
