Huntington Garden Cont'd (Friday March 11)

I (David) had goose-bumps when I saw this machine at The Huntington in Pasadena.  Reminds me of work.  I did see the landscape supervisor and another worker examining the grounds but I resisted the urge to ask if they wanted some advise.

 We came upon a bamboo stand that had been cut down, trying to decide if we could make rain-sound instruments or jousting sticks.

This lizard was NOT the komodo variety that grows to six feet, but only a few inches.

The gravel represents water - the rocks are islands
