Seems like I've been to China Camp nearly one million times, and I don't think there's ever been a visit that I haven't tried framing-up this composition, just one more time.

California has a plethora of 278 State Parks, but China Camp is one of the 70 scheduled to be closed on July 1. It is unlikely that California will emerge from its massive indebtedness any time soon. Some public organizations are trying to coordinate plans with the State to run some of the parks on their own--stay tuned.

Time passes slowly at China Camp. Frank Quan is the only remaining resident--it is unclear whether he will be allowed to continue living at the village when the park closes.

Frank seems to be stocking up on paper towels--maybe he's staying.
CLICK for the very "best" of my work on my photo website.

Hi Don,
I'm finally back in business and can again visit your blog.
Terrific shots of China Camp. Glad you are chronicaling the demise of the Park.
The last photo is a real charmer. Love it.
Hello there Don!
Amazing pictures as always. I like the comparison of the 'men' and 'women' image. :D
