European Memories - The trip to Morocco

Spain, 1970, on the way to Morocco with Steve Lewis and two friends.  Steve shipped his Maroon colored VW bug with surf board over to Spain from Southern California to go surfing in Morocco, and picked me up in Madrid on the way.  I invited two other girls to come.  I was a brat.  Here I'm wearing Steve's cashmere sweater.  I probably would have been kidnapped and put into white slavery in Morocco if not for Steve.  Amazing I survived this, among many other adventures.  I've always wondered what happened to Steve Lewis.  I wanted to apologize for my behavior.  He was a great guy.

Oil on hand-stretched Belgian 66J linen 28x22.  Image of the blonde based on a photo snapped on a road trip in Morocco around 1969 or 1970 when surfer friend picked me up from my pension in Spain with his VW and surf board and we travelled down to Rabat.  Interesting trip!  Background is from a more recent visit to New Mexico - the countryside where Georgia O'Keefe liked to paint.  Beautiful skies.
