Drake's Who's Who...

One of the photos is young Bill Drake, the other is Ricky Nelson. They were supposed to be lookalikes.

Iferouâne

Iferouâne Idiiyat-es-Sahel is the birth name of my taidit. In Tamasheq it means wings.

She is named after Iferouâne, an oasis town in northern Niger, West Africa, about 1,000 km (620 miles) north of the Niger capital, Niamey. Just northwest of Arlit, capital of the Arlit Department in the Agadez Region, Iferouâne is located in the Ighazar Valley of the Sahelian belt, near the Tamgak Range. It is the gateway to the spectacular volcanic Aïr Massif mountains, which rises 2,000 meters from the desert floor.
