As we work on our next grant, plan the next visit and research the details in the book, an interesting this is happening.  We are starting to receive emails from people related to the story in different ways, all asking for help connecting to others we are in touch with.  Relatives of Leonard Clark’s friends,  book publishers, gold prospectors and so forth.  We appear to have created a small internet hub that brings together far flung pieces of Leonard Clark’s world.

Once we complete our latest grant application, which involves a fun video skit, we’ll be back at work on the following:
-Pinpointing the three most viable sites to look for Spanish ruins and the evidence of Clark’s passage.
-creating a fly-over in Google Earth so website visitors can see exactly where this is all happening.
-researching people mentioned in the book to see who may have descendants that might provide more information.
-trying to answer some of our biggest questions:
Where are Clark’s diaries?
Where is the fabled leather map he used to discover the ruins?
Where did Clark learn all his statistics about the Spanish gold operations along the Maranon River?
Why does it take us so long to make any measurable progress on this project?
