Just found a link to the camp that was on site from the 40's to the 70's! It was called Camp Moonbeam.

My friend in the picture was a professional musician all of his life until his stroke 2 years ago. This is his first time strumming since the stroke. His left hand was totally frozen but his right hand felt so comfortable playing!

NEW SONG~~

One day, I was a climber
climbed so high to the mountain top
found a guru sittin up on a tree
looked in his eyes, this is what he said to me

Do you believe in love...and whatchoo doin about that?

One day I spent the whole day lookin in the mirror
Peelin through the layers of who I became.
Till the reflection up on the wall
Asked me a question that summed up it all.

Do you believe in love...and whatchoo doin about that?

One day I was a general of a war
Leading my troops to forever more.
Ran into my enemy
Couldn't believe what he said to me.

Do you believe in love...and wahtchoo doin about that?

One day I was a logger deep in the woods,
Goin after some redwoods, as many as I could, ya.
Trhough a calm, gentle breeze,
I heard a whisper, I heard the trees..they said

Do you believe in love...and whatchoo doin about that?

One day I was a planet, called earth
Home for anything that could make it work.
These things called people started makin a mess,
this songs for them, we gotta do our best

Do you believe in love..and whatchoo doin about that?

up up and away

he that embraces life and loves grows strong feathers
the helping hand widens the wing span with every touch
the angry man is too tense to allow the sprouts to spread
the greedy self absorbed man is too bent over from con decent to allow proper growth

the more you touch, see, feel, hear and absorb, the more feathers.
Did you know that hte genuine smile muscle is directly connected to the flappers?
as is the muscle of the good touch
your tongue can also greatly effect wing agility and flexibility if used correctly.
that quiet man with great intentions and little action has mighty wings, if he would open them.

i see the wings in all of you-
come fly away

Enjoy the night

A poem by Hafiz..if you please
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It rained during the night..
and two puddles formed in the dark
and began chatting,
one said

"Its is so nice to at lest be upon tis earth and to meet you as well"

"but what will happen when the brilliant sun comes and turns us back into spirit
again??"

....Dear ones
enjoy the night as much as you can.

Why ever trouble your heart with flight,,,when you have just arrived
and your body is so full of warm desires.

the voyage to the treesit

RIDING UP the highway A1-A...beachfront Avenue in style!

<--this is the first "tent" in the treesit at about 80 feet up. There are another 2 tents in the canopy at about 160 feet that we can't see from the ground

























Below is what we sleep and live on. They are big dreamcatchers made out of rope that truckers and parachutes use. Usually this is covered by tarps, sleeping bags and blankets.
































































-There is also a picture of pesach going up the tree for the first time. You can see the first level dreamcatcher above him.
-The last two pictures are from inside the top dreamcatcher. I took them right before I repeled down on a rainy and windy day. It looks like a tent but its really 160 some feet above the ground.
-In the last picture, check out the shelf, the strong branch that helped hold us up, the guitar case, the webbing of the dreamcatcher, and the tarps that kept us insulated.

that rabbit/cow/backpacker is my bro

grow from inspiration

my eyes look to grow and i grow from inspiration
my inspiration is a fire growing higher with conteplation

my roots have wheels and my wheels have miles
my miles have stories and my stories have rivals

my shoes have dirt and my dirts from many places
the places have people and the people have faces
The faces have smiles and the smiles have reasons
The reasons have culture which comes from decisions

my wheel follows whim and my whim has a compass
my compass has directoin and my direction is all over

my wings have tracks and my tracks have a train
my train has a rudder thats connected to my brain

my lighthouse is the moon and the moon is my friend!
my friend is myself and i'm with me round every bend

my home has a pulse and my pulse has a beat
my beat has a drum and the drum moves my feet
my feet have a yearning and my yearning has a dream
my dream has a vision and the vision is sereane

dupe of russ at The Wall
Heres what he wrote about it:

"Pesach, Tevia, and Yoni (also known as Jeremy, Russell, and Jon). For months, I've been looking under my bed and in my cabinets before I go to sleep in anticipation of the Yoni dupe. As soon as I begin to think he's never coming to Israel...So, Jer brings me down to the Kotel (Western Wall) to pray for his ailing realative, and I'm leaning against the wall (shown in backround) thinking positive thoughts and listening to this old Chassidic man who is wrapped up in a Tallis (religious blanket, for lack of better words) and has a fur mink hat with long peyes (curly hair located above the ear. Religious Jews grow them long extremely long) curling past his chin, chanting Yiddish songs. All of a sudden, in the midst of deeply concentrating on the mans' voice and Jer's relative, the chant changes tune to the first couple of notes of "I know you rider", a Grateful Dead song that remains a powerful motif for our friendship. In a split second, I lost control and instinctively tackled this "old man" on the stone floor of the Kotel, knowing or hoping that it was Yoni."

150 ft. up in redwoods

"there's a drop of water on the wall
and the drops about to fall
falls into a trickle
trickles running down
down, down to the ground
where the moss begins to grow
watch, watch that water flow
into a current
becomes a stream
busting through the seams
tearing through the concrete
bending down the steel
with a raging that is real
tearing torrents you can feel
feel the thunder under ground
and in our hearts
the chains falling apart
the wildness in our souls
and for once in life
and for once in life we know were not alone
the mountains in our bones
the oceans in our blood
with our feet planted firmly in the mud
we are alive
burning embers in our eyes
tingling touch upon our skin
and in the heat of passion we begin
to understand
we are of this land
we are part of her
and when she's threatened
we will fight for all were worth
and then the dams
the dams come crashing down
water flowing to the sea
now the river
the river is free. . . . . ."

We don't wanna ill...
we just wanna chill...
