Such an erudite Renaissance man how could his origins possibly be the Gold Coast? Then I saw the foot tattoo, my doubts dispelled! Kindest Regards from a fellow traveler and Sandgroper.
What a strange “New World “: One needs to apologise for bare legs (with visible knees - ohh my...) while presidents and politicians (or their handlers) decide on wars and spend money they don’t have of a generation that didn’t vote for them. To top it off, the extremities are obviously male and white - the only remedy: Declare a national emergency!
But please, keep on writing, unapologetically! Jack
Imagine one day, in the near future, when The Pool of Siloam, in the City of David, gets opened to the public.
That will definitely be a place to visit. Millions of people will want go and swim there, as history states that it is an ancient ritual immersion site, and also the place where Jesus cured a man’s blindness.
It would be nice to drink a little bit of that water, even just an ounce, just in case it has magical powers! 😂
You were smarter than I was a couple decades ago. I went out there barefoot (shoes left in a locker) with the soles of my feet burning. Ran to the dock, slipped and skinned my knee, then plunged in. The pain of salt in the wound overcame the initial wonder of floating in jello (as you analogized) but the buoyancy kept my knee above water so I could enjoy the experience of the float.

Possibly my favorite comment of the year. One day I’ll tell the story behind (and beneath) it… Cheers!
