Adanboy, there is no thrill anymore, not even for me, about arguing about whose patch of dust is larger. None whatsoever.

I do not know how this guy was in Somalia for span of 2 years and knows every city and has met countless people. It must be the old age, and the gum disease that are causing his hallucinations.

A walking encyclopdia of Somalia even though he was there less than 2 years in 1965, inwhich 98% of the time he was in Jilib teaching English to bantu peasants. Laughing

Bantu love anything, especially the white elastic skin. So he probably thought the rest of the population would welcome him with open arms, he was sadly mistaken.

Do NOT forget the copy and paste method, DS. He is known for that. O_o

Dawlad,

True story. Trip to Eyl, July, 1967. Laughing

The restaurant had one of those alcohol-burning refrigerators to keep the drinks cold. There was a storage shed, still partly in construction, that sold gasoline. I don't know what the other building was.

There were mounds of rocks at spaced intervals all along the skyline at one point in the trip. I think it was between Hamar and Dhuusamareeb. They went on for some distance. Does anyone know what that is?

We stopped on the trip at a balli (sp?) that was covered with grass mats. It had some of the clearest, blue-greenest, sweetest water I have ever tasted.

We were served caano nuug and fried yams the first night by the District Commissioner. The yams grow in and around the water that flows through Eyl, which supprised me. I found a dozen rusting plows abandoned above the cliff. Too bad, since the water going over the cliff would irrigate several thousand acres.

Grant, were you in Jilib in 1965? If so, then you might be one of a major contingent of non-locals sent to Jilib. My uncle left Hargeisa to teach young girls in Waamo in the 1970's, and my grandfather was a military policeman there in the 1950's and 1960's, heck you might even know them by name.

Somaliweyn,

There are many more than 3 buildings in Dusomareeb. It is roughly the size of LasQoray, Sanaag.
