I like those coats. The possom coat looks much nicer than I thought it would. They are disgusting looking creatures and were forever getting in my chicken coop to steal eggs when I was in Nebraska.
My SIL is from Ghana, but grew up in France. His mother's still in Africa and I do want to get over there sometime and do a safari, but we haven't talked about it a lot. He's working on his citizenship and working in politics in Denver. He thinks he has a place for me to go elk hunting there, but it may not work out yet for this coming season. Laura's degree is in "global studies", hence the overseas study. Interestingly she speaks some Russian, Turkish, Spanish, French and of course English. Our granddaughter will be bilingual in English and French, our SIL's primary language. He's also fluent in English and Spanish, though the locals here chuckle at him since he learned to speak the Spanish spoken in Spain.
It is a shame that Mexico has become such a dangerous place.
