From page 73: Cub said, "I didn't think it'd bother me but it sure as hell
does." He asked, "Where'd you get that thing?" "That Thing" was an old
Dodge Power Wagon, dark green with a cracked vent window and one bright
orange fender. A dog could have walked under it without bending over. A
tall dog. It had knobby military tires, an oversize military spotlight,
and a new 3/8" cable wrapped around the winch in front.

for a $100.00 tax deductible donation to the American Foundation for the
Study of Man. It is 90 minutes, in color with some photography by
George Farrier. A must for Power Wagon owners as they are well featured.
Dodge could almost have used it as a promotional film for the PW. The donation
is for continuing work by the American Foundation in Mareb, Yemen.
It is going on now. The American Foundation was out there last spring
excavating more of the Temple in Mareb. As they raise more money, they
will continue the work.
