Ah yes...peace.
Thanks you guys, this is really turning into what I hoped for.
Thanks Jerry, Is that one old leaner on top of Watkins??
Edit: On second thought, it looks too close for Watkins.
Excellent all the way around.
Edit:The one by the stream is truly bonsai!!

Bonsai! Ironically, my aunt is a bonsai hunter up in Oregon. She "harvests" and resells the trees. tsk, tsk. Shameful.
Yes that is on Watkins.

Wood is a real cool medium to groove on LIFE!
Trees have to live where they are! That takes a certain kind of resolute strength, unimaginable to moving creatures........
Trees have Might.

That last picture makes me sad, Rick.
But I guess a necessary part of my reconciliation with the natural world as a carpenter. sigh

Below the base of Angel Wings is a Mighty Juniper, gotta be 8-900 years old. Has this boulder cleaving it in two.Can't be more than 10 feet tall.
It don't care. It's got time to grow around The Wound.
Already well on it's way.
It'll be fine.Trees are mighty.
Made a fine base camp, too.

Hot Diggidy, I don't know where to start except to say I sure am glad all you Tacoites have better (Better Photographers) pictures than I do!
It's like going on the ultimate tree tour.
I love hanging out with you people.
