| Welcome to the photo pages, here you will find alot of picutres of what Bomi Hills was like back in the 1950's, the 1960's and finally in the 1970's. I always had my cameria when I went outdoors, a hobby that I still have to this day. All the photos can be made larger by clicking on them. I was bought a scanner by Santa this year so now I can show you more of my photos. I hope that you enjoy the site, thank you so much for visiting. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Welcome to the 2nd part of the web site, all about the Liberian Mining Company. It was the place that my family moved to during the early 1970's. It was a wonderful time in my life, something that I will never forget. I dedicated my whole site to all those that have died and suffered during the terrible Liberian Civil War. May peace return soon and all the wonderful things that I remember bloom once again. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
