EXODUS TO AND FROM 7TH AND MONTANA ...?!?

                             

Is it my imagination, or has there been an Exodus lately from 7th and Montana to the Middle East?  Leah just left yesterday for another month-long sojourn to the "Promised Land."  Charlie (pictured here) just returned from a two-month exploration of the Middle East for his TV series.  Everyone says the area is perfectly safe -- that we take greater risks walking around downtown L.A. than traveling across the Middle East -- but I still have my doubts.  For now, despite my interest in Middle Eastern Culture, I'll stick to drinking "Arabica" coffee at 7th and Montana ...!

I have been out to the Middle East on numerous occasions. As for how safe it has been, that has varied considerably. On one occasion whilst in Israel I had to endure scud missiles.
