The Mighty Eucalyptus of California

www.google.com...
Lining the entire El Camino Real and into the adjoining communities. Missions, Presidios, Chapels and Fortifications.
Who Actually Planted Them All?
What was there purpose?
Windbreaks, Lumber, Firewood?
Research suggests otherwise.
Plant the Eukes!

I grew up in the 1950s in the San Fernando Valley- our house had two rows of eucalyptus, and I had such a bond with them. To this day they are my favorite; strong spiritual energy ! Thanks for this!

[@Marlowe-fg5kf]

My high school in Hayward had a huge grove of eucalyptus. I love the way they smell. Thanks ❤

[@AdventurousGnome]

Mine too😮

[@AdventurousGnome]

The narrative was that the zodiac nutso was loose in the area😮

[@Marlowe-fg5kf]

@@AdventurousGnome I remember that!

Beautiful❤❤❤

[@denalinde]

One of these days a cute lil’ koala is going to peek out from between the gorgeous eucalyptus trees when you’re out photographing. 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

[@AdventurousGnome]

I sure hope so 🥰

[@suefanelli]

I love the eucalyptus trees. They are amazing!

[@MarianneHyatt]

Remember when I awoke to their breeze from out of a trailer home inhabited by my late night pickup, just outside HelLA. I wasn't sure that they didn't generate that breeze themselves. I was cleaned out and contact high from those mighty trees. Otherworldly and super powerful - nearly hurt to breathe around them. Thanks for another cinematic snippet - Goddess Bless you for choosing Excalibur again.

Your comment sounded like a epic poem to me 😂 Such use of words and swing in emotions. A complete roller-coaster of wtf

❤❤❤ Wonderful, Kairos!

We live in such a beautiful place ❤

There’s a lot in Santa Cruz up on UCSC property. Long straight rows of enormous eucalyptus. The story I was told is that the early Spanish ships transporting cattle from Australia is the reason they’re here. And they were planted in rows to block the wind for some reason. Something in the soil here makes them grow hundreds of times larger than they do in Australia. Again, this is all what I was told

[@I_am_Kairos]

All along the cliffs in Aptos. They are also at the Holy Cross ( Santa Cruz, El Camino Real ) cathedral with an R/R tunnel underneath kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZOoaJiqZZt_m5I

Oh my Lord! The drone in the tops of The Euks? Epic

[@kurtis47]

Incredible Kairos !! It is my belief that a wall once existed where these long straight rows of eucalyptus now thrive…. the event not only caused mayhem and destruction, but also sprung life in many circumstances, imho …. plant the eukes!!!! 🚁🚁🙏🙏 🎩 🧱🧱🍻

[@I_am_Kairos]

There are three stone bridges, the power lines and roads all run parallel and it was windier between the rows! I took you to that one bridge. they grow back after resets to mark the infrastructure or routes, it seems

[@AdventurousGnome]

Eucs tell quite the tale….

[@gingergrinn8]

They bring to us such beauty and mystery. 🌳💞

[@MissPatice]

They drink lots of water, maybe planted in or along the old canals, waterways, as Michelle Gibson talks about? Straight after this video finished, a story of a 500 year old eucalytus tree in Tasmania, Australia played. It was much much larger than these. I am in Australia and probably why it played.

[@russellm7530]

Whats the deal with them. I don't think ive lived around any. Are they not native?

[@I_am_Kairos]

supposedly hand planted. from Aus.

[@RussLinzmeier]

Eucalyptus hardly ever grow on their own , their seeds seldom germinate . They pretty much have to be planted and then tended to for several years until their tap roots establish . You hardly ever see baby Eucalyptus near the groves .

[@bdog573]

I swear,they must be markers for water underground or travel routes. In case of a catastrophe, just follow the Eucalyptus trees to navigate. They sure have them on every freeway in California

[@I_am_Kairos]

@@bdog573 i agree. nav points that grow back

El Camino Real=The Royal Road

[@kevinwilliam3722]

How old do you reckon they are? If the majority of the tree is buried, do they continue to grow? I have noticed that a portion of a state highway “OSR” here in Texas has been labeled “el Camino real”. I wonder why

[@kevinwilliam3722]

These el Camino real signs are new on this OSR highway. They were put there about a year ago.

[@kevinwilliam3722]

OSR is short for old San Antonio road

I identify My minds eye sees itself as a blue square. My house is a white male body. I’ve never lived in a different house. I’ve never been outside my house. I remember when I let everything in and now the garbage is easily identified. The garbage doesn’t go away. There is no way to unthink thoughts that have already happened. You cannot clean house and dispose of anything. The only thing that can be done is organization. Don’t worry about more garbage coming into your house. Everything that is garbage and true is already in you. You just have to make sense of it all. I’ve never painted my house but my house paints for me. The highly refined organization in the house paints a different view of the world in the minds eye than the unorganized house. The unorganized house is cluttered. Example I do not have a hammer inside of me. But everything about the hammer is inside of me. It’s very easy to pick up a hammer and use it because it’s inside of you that knows how to use the hammer. The hammer is easily defined. You know exactly what to do at a stop sign. But there is more meaning to these basic things that are inside you. Not all of the hammer or stop sign is in you. Everyone is operating from what they were told that the hammer and stop sign is. Without any self study of the hammer or stop signs. Physically I’ve never looked myself in the eyes and mentally I’ve never seen my mind self. I cannot see me. It’s not about a dirty or clean house. It’s about organizing what “the house” put inside you. But really you must go outside a lot to see what is inside you. You gotta study the world and organize it all to paint the picture of the world in your mind. Physical identification is very easy. White male. Done. Knew this when I was 3 years old. Because I could see down. If I look up, I cannot see my “forehead”. It’s much harder to identify as a mind than body. You can look down and see the body but you cannot look up and see the mind. Because one is visible and the other isn’t visible. Where things would not be different is. The body identifies as a color and shape. White male. The mind must identify the same way. Color and shape. Blue square. Just like through education, the child knows it’s a white boy. Through other education, the mind can know it’s a blue square. You will never see your own head. Which makes it hard to identify as the mind. That’s why everyone identifies as the body. It’s easier. You can see your own body. It takes a lot of work to identify as something that cannot be seen. Looking down was easy. Looking up is hard.

[@kevinwilliam3722]

We live now in a place where people “look up” information to see what other people say about said information. Meanwhile everyone is sitting in there high place looking down at what people say. Maybe come down a little and then you can look up to your self. The world is a vast amount of information. It should be looked up to. No more burring information and looking down at it. It’s time. The buried information has grown into something bigger than the planter. We live in a post sown time. Thought is the product. What better way to produce thought? Create a confusing world Thought can lead to being able to identify as something other than a body. The world is set up to make us think. And that keeps everybody looking down at the world. The people who see the lies have legitimate reasons to look down at the world. That’s part of the trick. How could anyone “look up to” a world of lies. Well it’s a must. You gotta look up to what is in your own head and make sense of it all

[@kevinwilliam3722]

The only reason anyone would seek the truth is because they know that what is in their mind is lies. I done that. And then I stopped believing that I didn’t already know everything that I needed to know. And then I studied the basics. Everything that everyone knows. Abc 123. Stop sign. Colors. Everything basic. Now it’s not me looking at the world. It’s the world is up there where I placed it and it’s looking at me

[@kevinwilliam3722]

Put the world on a shelf. Not because you want to see it later or preserve it. But instead it’s a great vantage point for you to be seen by the world. The world is worth looking up to.
