I’ve been to Malibu Club in Canada. It is still operating and still just as beautiful. Young Life bought it and they host teens from all over for a week. What you cannot tell from the images is that there is no road to the camp. A three-hour cruise ride will take you there on their own private line. Along which you will see the clearest streams in the world, wild bears, bald eagles and forests that look like they belong in the ewok adventures…
Nice post.
Sign under erection heh heh heh heh heh.
A fantastic article on the digitization of On the Road. It’s amazing to have seen the original scroll on display at the NYPL and the evolution of publishing to what we have now.
