"We all travel the milky way together, trees and men... trees are travellers, in the ordinary sense. They make journeys, not very extensive ones, it is true: but our own little comes and goes are only little more than tree-wavings - many of them not so much". ~John Muir, Scribner's Monthly, November 1878
The late night/early morning and a low viewpoint turns what is in fact a rather comfortable hotel into a somewhat ominously gothic scene.
It's blooming right now. A mass of blooms on what must be a very old large tree on an old farmstead along Augusta Highway, Route 25 at Princeton, S.C. Couldn't get too close as gate is closed and no trespassing signs posted and may not be occupied? Initially I thought it was a horsechestmut, but have dismissed that and now my best guess is Catalpa. If so, I'd expect it to be Catalpa bignonioides - Southern Catalpa.

Fake Plastic Trees by RADIOHEAD (one of my fav. bands)
A green plastic watering can
For a fake chinese rubber plant
In the fake plastic earth
That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plans
To get rid of itself
It wears her out, it wears her out
It wears her out, it wears her out
She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns
He used to do surgery
On girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins
And it wears him out, it wears him out
It wears him out, it wears him out
She looks like the real thing
She tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love
But I can't help the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
If I just turn and run
And it wears me out, it wears me out
It wears me out, it wears me out
And if I could be who you wanted
If I could be who you wanted
All the time, all the time

My cousin Angie hosted a July 4th dinner + fireworks and had these amazingly simple lanterns around the yard. (mason jar + beans + tea light + fishing line)
