Shaky video and more shocks

I wouldn't give a letter of recommendation to film school for whoever took this video but it gets the idea across. I have 38 other videos just as shaky or shakier on my computer detailing other aspects of the flood. This one was obviously taken soon after because the water was still pretty fast and high. Now it's pretty much down to a small stream.

In a little while I will be able to post the video of Bahajj's house. Currently, the file is way too large to put on blogspot. Tarik is going to edit it down. He's trying to find some time to work on it in his 15 hour a day 7 days a week current work schedule.

As for the update, we have not heard anything more about whatever kind of relief assistance the government is planning to give. Tarik says that if it does happen, it will take a long time. Officials have been out to assess the damage and this is about as far as we've gotten.

Also, Bahajj had a heart attack last week. He's doing fine now and is in stable condition. I suppose it's no wonder why. I very much hope that he hangs on tight. This generation of Berbers holds so much of the tradtions. They have seen Morocco go through so many changes.
