| | | A few months back, I was heading back to Denver from home and decided that I needed to take a bathroom break, so I pulled off at the first exit I could along I-80. On one side of the street, there is a large RV camping sign soaring through the air, and on the other, Behold, was this incredible old house painted all sorts of crazy colors, and missing one part of it's roof. Give or take I just figured it was an old abandoned farmhouse that some youths has gotten to. Naturally, I had to go and check this place out. When first entering the building, I was somewhat tense and had an erie feeling about the place but shortly after I took a few steps in, I was excited to look around and see what I could find. Much of the house was pretty trashed with lots of clutter, all sorts of writing on the walls, a room with a peace sign crafted from zig-zag blunt wraps, a room where the entire floor was occupied by empty film canisters and an upstairs bedroom with a straight shot to the entrance, aka no floor whatsoever. While I was upstairs, a couple explorers from somewhere in Nevada strolled in and chatted with me for quite a while. Turns out that this building was built as a place "where the seeds of peace were sown by a group of visionaries who wanted a venue where people could meditate about ways to change a violent world" and was funded by one or another form of the state govt. I really enjoyed looking around the park and would definitely check it out if you're around those parts. 1.

And i only explore with the strobe setting. The standard setting is for squares. People tend to get a little upset with me, but it's the only way to truly live. -Relik |

| | | I haven't been there since the late 90's when I had a girlfriend that was a Quaker and she wanted to see it. Are any of the sculptures left on the property or is the bashed house all that's left? I think it's owned by the Maharishi University now.

| | | There was supposedly a statue of some sort there at one time from what I hear, but I don't remember seeing it. Most of the place is is trashed but the decay is rad. It's really incredible that this building was a functioning place and now its a few steps from rubble, yet it's still a way cool location, especially for just stumbling into it.

| | | I was here not too long ago. Ill throw up some iPhone pics for now but might post some better ones later. There is a "clay stomp" mural out in the field and a couple statues left but not many. A lot of it is overgrown now 1.
