New Phone Number

I think everyone knows already, but to make sure. I have a new phone number. It is: (660) 349-7328. For those on Sprint with free Sprint-to-Sprint, it is a Sprint phone. :)

A piece of family history- kind of.

Here are some pictures we took of the LST (Landing Ship Tank) 325 which docked at Hannibal last week. Grandpa (Dad, Santiago) spent some time on one like this in WWII in the Pacific. This particular one was used in the Sicily and D-Day invasions. More info can be found at the LST Ship Memorial webpage, or this article from the Hannibal Courier-Post.

1. Looking from the stern (rear) of the ship.



2. From the bow (front).



3. From across the river (sorry for the poor quality).

4. Inside the storage area (big enough for twenty Sherman tanks).

Surprise for the Kelly's

We are happy (and surprised) to announce that Deann is expecting. We aren't sure of the exact due date but it should be sometime in April. These Lebron family get togethers are getting bigger and bigger every year! :)

Happy birthday!

Amazon Pictures (3rd Group)

"Here is a picture of Iquitos, Peru. It is the farthest upstream river port of the Amazon. At over 2300 miles from the Atlantic the Amazon is still over 2 kilometers wide. Iquitos can only be reached by air or boat. Modes of transportation are limited to scooters and tut-tuts which are 2-cycle gas three wheeled vehicles that are loud and give off lots of fumes. We got caught in the 7 a.m. school traffic surrounded by hundreds of these vehicles in an open air wooden bus. The population is approaching 500,000. The other pix is of a typical family dugout going to market. It is powered by a small engine with screw on the end of a long pole which can be lifted out of the water. These are the same types I saw in Bangkok on the other side of the world!"

Iquitos, Peru

"In these pictures I am on a canopy (skywalk) and the other with village elder. We went on a tributary of the Amazon deep into the jungle until we arrived at a resort. There we went on a hike in the jungle using stepping stones on the muddy trails. We went over a valley to the other side on a canopy walk 90' over the jungle floor. The leather leggings were loaned to us by the boat crew to protect against snakes and other critters that might want a chunk of your leg. The roll under my arm is a poncho which came in handy minutes later under a heavy jungle rain. The sound of the rain in the jungle is deafening but the scents and smells are clean and sweet. The other picture is of the village elder. He is an unusual 84 yr old because life expectancy is in the 60s for men. That is his home behind us. Ribereños keep their hair and it does not turn white."
