Let's shower in the banana patch!
Maybe you need more privacy?The black tank on top warms the water in the sun.
"Privacy and security are those things you give up
when you show the world what makes you extraordinary."

See how the Banana leaves unfold?Banana trees are actually giant grasses, not trees.
"All our progress is an unfolding, like the vegetable bud,
you have first an instinct, then an opinion,
then a knowledge, as the plant has root, bud and fruit.
Trust the instinct to the end, though you can render no reason."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
See how this fern is unfolding as well?How does it know how to grow all wrapped up like that?
"Each of us is born with the potential for the unfolding of our true self.
When you deviate from the truth, you are interfering with the intention
of something greater than you are-
call it nature or a higher power.
As a result, you develop discomfort."

I will compromise sister, I will continue to keep the private part private but I will continue to walk naked.
love the pictures !
god is great. plants just know how to unfold itself.
Interesting quotes and pictures. Love that banana tree shower.
Loved the pictures, Cloudia. Thanks for all the quotes about unfolding and sharing ourselves! Delicious food for thought.
I remember when I was taught that the banana tree was really a giant grass. Incredible.
Your photos are gorgeous, Cloudia.
Terrific photos, Cloudia. I'm enjoying my day of privacy. Aloha.
Great pics. Could the folded leaf of the last one be an ants'nest? I saw ants'nests in Australia, which looked a bit like this one.
Aloha, Cloudia!
I need privacy from my mother, my extra-ordinariness is wasted on her!!
Happy Sunday, friend.
What a great idea! Never thought of a shower in a banana patch :)

Great captures Cloudia, as always. And the quoatations are thought provoking. I like the banana patch shower, it reminded me of the province where I came from.
Self unfolding of the leaves is simply fascinating.
Salaam my friend.
I miss outdoor showers, one of my favorite things about spending time on the beach. I had the pleasure of learning about them first in the Virgin Islands one trip long ago in another life. I learned to shower in the afternoon when the water, and I, had heated from the sun.
Heard my name being mentioned few times haha. Nice poems
No privacy for me...But Thanks.
Love the outdoor showers!! I want one for my backyard..once(in my misspsent youth) I was in Santa Cruz, California and at the home of some folks who had an outdoor bath in the backyard..a small rustic building with an open ceiling (so you could see the clouds)..the tub was huge and completely lined in smooth flat stones from a river. It had plants and candles and all things serene and wonderful.. I always vowed to have one myself some day...maybe this year?? lol
Thank you top bananas!
A friend whose family has a house in Cape May has an outdoor shower ... even in September its fun to use .. just make sure you have a nice big thick towel or robe handy.
a lovely post, cloudia, I love the pictures and the comments to go with them
from a very cold and snowy world to a warm and comforting one,
greetings, Friko
Now that is one nice outside shower!
<><
What a great resource!
