Hi friends!

[TurtleSquisher]

But..but..but..The rock provides shade for the old man.....He would have heat stroke without the rock....Please be considerate of others.

I will forever hide a little old zen master behind that rock.

Many of us here embrace structures and figures.. when done tastefully and correctly.

Others do NOT.

There are no "partial believers"

I like them!

Here's a couple I have around (The closest I could grab for photographs).. two are still "green" AAAAAND spoken for already.

The rest have already been distributed to these fine, bnut folks, over the past year(ish)

Welcome to the B-nut! Always glad to see another nut from the best coast! I'm up here just over the border in SW Oregon. I used to get down to Humboldt Co, love the Eel River rocks, but my friends there moved to Hawaii. I'm all into road trips to see friends and share bonsai stuff, but I just can't make the swim! Pleased to meet you!

uhhMAZINGGGG HUH. I absolutely love everything about the environment through Humboldt county. I wanted to move to Arcata but it was just too... political. I'm an old soul an believe in a lot of old values and the community kinda made me uncomfortable so I decided not to.

Unbelievable scenery nonetheless!!!!

You'll never believe this but my parents rented a home directly off the Eel river!! It was when I was a ling of course but I used to go there all the time and catch tiny trouts! Then hop over the bridge an catch turtles and go to the dollar tree down the street for some pop! So funny you know the Eel river~

 

[HorseloverFat]

Well... I'm a cirrhotic patient, on partial disability..

I'd certainly LOVE for it to be!

I "broke even" last year, between plants and clay.

...So hopefully.. eventually.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you friend

Can I just say HOW FRIGGIN AWESOME IT IS YOU BROKE EVEN THO? The sustainability and creations you made were paid for, awEESOMEEe!! Of course breaking even is bad for business but great for you. It's hard to get your money back on niche-tiered items!!

I'm an old school hippie dude, I recall bits and pieces of the sixties and none of the seventies, and I hold to the code of the West, "You must remain upright at all times".
In the late seventies there was a large migration to Humboldt Co from S. Oregon in seach of greener pastures. I didn't go. I stayed up here, but I ended up with a lot of friends in Garberville and Redway area with a lot of visitation back and forth. Now, I was a rockhound long before the bonsai addiction and I collected boxes of Eel River rocks. I have a few left and now I have no contacts in the area and I don't need to tell you people are real pissy about trespassers.

Good stuff brotha! I love the history of the West! You're definitely an old soul man!! You gotta send me some pictures of the Eel river rocks, cause last time I saw some was at least a decade and a half ago, I'm super interested.

It's a sᴍᴀʟʟ world...

Great growth happening friends!!!! Finally got the fertilizer on!!!!

Welcome aboard. Personally, I like the screen name. I refer to bonsai as my "pet turtle". Like someone who had loving, interactive dogs all their life and now has a pet turtle that doesn't do all that much. So too this hobby. When I did woodworking, the wood was on my schedule and I could work as much or as little as I wanted. Like a loving dog. These trees, however, have their own turtle schedule. We "squish" this turtle by getting more trees so we have more things to do with our turtles. The, as they say, it's turtles all the way down.
