flowering fruit trees

So verdant, lush and beautiful, Camp Joy in the springtime reminds me of Pandora in Avatar.

The apple, pear and stone fruit trees flout lovely flowers as harbingers of the sweet fruits they will bear.

And the humming vibration of the buzzing bees busy pollinating the trees is is a gentle om that greets you at the gate.

camp joy: crooked house, redwoods and plant sale

strong dreams in the crooked house

where ivy comes inside to grow via cracks in the walls

and the big house can be seen from the front door

during morning yawns and first pee of the day, the sun rays filter through the redwood yum yum trees

i'm sorry i didn't climb you oh great beloved yum yum trees

potatoes and ducks now reside where Herman the goat once roamed

entrepreneurs isaac and haven set up a limeade and vanilla pear muffin stand: yum yum

in the prop area, (that's propagation), the camp joy plant sale was in full swing

camp joy revisited

When I first posted photos of Camp Joy, I was checking my watch to leave for the airport to fly to Argentina. So, I was in a hurry and inevitably left out a bunch of good images from 2007 now seen here...
