We went for a short hike through the redwoods and comprehended their enormous size. They are big and the woods were dark and damp.

We weren&#8217;t and even turned down a ticket.

I wasn&#8217;t surprised to learn that it started there and even less surprised that it was moved to private land elsewhere. In case you are not familiar with the Bohemian Grove, it is a gathering of some of the most powerful men in the country. They get together to drink, dress in drag and perform creepy ancient rituals. In essence, the Bohemian Grove is the world&#8217;s most powerful sausage party. <\/p>\n<p>These are the types of things one learns in political economy courses.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/wfyurasko\/2115110568\/\" title=\"DSCF0089 by wfyurasko, on Flickr\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2282\/2115110568_571af7a9f3.jpg?resize=500%2C375\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" alt=\"DSCF0089\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Best viewed <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photo_zoom.gne?id=2115110568&#038;context=set-72157603468933410&#038;size=l\"><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">large<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>[<strong style=\"color:#3993ff\">flick<span style=\"color:#ff1c92\">r<\/span><\/strong> : <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/wfyurasko\/tags\/muirwoods\/\"><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">my photos tagged with muirwoods<\/span><\/a>\/<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/wfyurasko\/tags\/muirwoods\/show\/\"><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">slideshow<\/span><\/a>]<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/website_3c1e0e40\/graphics\/technorati.gif\" border=\"0\">  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/muirwoods\" rel=\"tag\">Muir Woods<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/BohemianGrove\" rel=\"tag\">Bohemian Grove<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\">&copy;MMX William F.
