Lone tree mountain from the air. As you see, there is much more than one tree on it, but if you looked at it from the barren side a few years ago, that is what it looked like. |

Our neighborhood from the air. Our house is above and slightly to the right of the one with the round trampoline in the back yard. Note the guard tower along the left side of the picture. The larger buildings near the top of the photo are part of the primary school. |

How many people live under and among these trees? Not everyone clears trees, makes houses you can see from the air, and plants gardens. Some people hunt & gather in the forest and make dwellings under the trees. I would be very surprised if we have actually found all of the people groups and languages in Papua New Guinea. Survey work is still in progress. |
