Its so nice to meet
   an old friend
and pass the time of
   day
And talk about the
   home town
a million miles away
   Is the ice still
   on the river,
are the old folks
   still the same
   And by the way,
did she mention my
   name
   Did she mention my
   name
   just in passing
And when the morning
   came,

   do you remember if she dropped a name or two
Is the home team still on fire,
   do they still win all the games
And by the way,
   did she mention my name

Is the landlord still a loser,
do his signs hang in the hall
Are the young girls still as pretty in the city in the fall
Does the laughter on their faces still put the sun to shame
And by the way,
did she mention my name

Did she mention my name just in passing
And when the talk ran high,
did the look in her eye seem far away
Is the old roof still leaking when the late snow turns to rain
And by the way,
did she mention my name

Did she mention my name just in passing
And looking at the rain,
   do you remember if she dropped a name or two
Wont you say hello from someone,
   theyll be no need to explain
And by the way,
   did she mention my name

Gordon Lightfoot

(1938 - 2023)

Mount Sinai,

also known as Mount Horeb, Mount Musa, Gebel Musa or Jabal Musa ("Moses' Mountain") by the Bedouins,
is the name of a mountain in the Sinai Peninsula.
At 2,285 metres high, it is the second highest mountain in the Sinai, after Mount St. Catherine

The steep, more direct route (Siket Sayidna Musa) ascends the 3,750 "steps of penitence"
directly up the ravine behind the monastery and may not be ascended by night.
At the summit also is "Moses' cave" where Moses is supposed to have waited to receive the Ten Commandments.
