Not only does California’s Route 36 boast beautiful riding and the world’s greatest road sign – it does so much more. It’s undulating roadway oozes hope from it’s very blacktop.
What the hell am I talking about?
Well, darlings, I’m so glad you asked.
Near Cottonwood, California where a dumpy, tan port-o-potty once stood – hope has sprung eternal in the form of…
a shoe tree.
Has there ever been a more poignant testament to the idea that you can rise up out of whatever shit you’ve come from to become something great?
No. No, I don’t think so.
From pee to shoe tree. From pooh to shoe. You too can become a butterfly; a phoenix, even! Don’t let anyone tell you any different.

Let me know ASAP if you run across a money tree. But don’t post it here, send me an email and keep it just between us.
You got it, T.
The chance to be something bigger, better than you are now…only you could come up with something that inspirational from what used to be a port o potty….LMAO
YOU are the inspiration incase you didn’t know that….oh and that money tree….share that with me too K…
Makes me wonder what would posses someone to toss shoes into a tree. Pretty cool though. BTW I’d like to know if you find the money tree too, hmmm I think I am going to go plant a loonie (CDN $1 coin) in the backyard & see what grows.
Hmm, looks like i’m going to have to download an exchange rate app for my iphone to handle yours and BDB’s portion of the money tree when I find it
