More from Peru

A couple of these guys were our room-mates the first couple nights.
As scary as this spider looks, no-one has ever heard of them biting anyone.
We did dispose of them after we got a good picture, though.


Check out this guy's dish network right over his livestock shed!
And he was playing classical music as we passed his place. Class and
culture survive even here...




Our family walking out to my parent's place during the strike.
This is the little village where they live.


Tim got this picture of a landing similar to ours. Just to show how close
they come to the mountains. This is considered a very difficult landing and take-off.

My dad built this well on his property based on a biblical design.
You can go down into it on a spiral staircase. It's really pretty neat
and keeps them going when the city water is turned off, which is
fairly often. They are also able to provide water for a neighboring orphanage.

Tristan and Sean playing in Grandma's willow tree.
They were swinging from the branches and doing Tarzan
yells... I'm sure you are surprised!

This is my parent's home. They have been slowly working on it for
10 plus years now. It is still unfinished. Tim is hoping to help them get
it closer to being done this summer.

One of the views from their home. Really a beautiful country!
