End of Innocence

This tree house in a huge eucalyptus tree was a hangout near my neighborhood while I was growing up. When I was a teenager the land was being cleared for apartment buildings and I learned the tree was being cut down. I grabbed some friends and my camera to capture the moment and tell the story. I like the Schwinn Stingrays and the Schwinn Wasp (Newsboy Bike).

 

This was taken in 1967 with a Yashica 12 camera.
