A Day with ApoDanny

Danny Javier of the Apo Hiking Society has invited over at his home just to catch up and spend some time. It was his small way (BIG FOR ME) of treating me for my birthday.

He’s best known for his songs and his group APO, but his artistry also comes forth in his passion for Bonsai trees and landscaping. He has toured me and shared with me his Bonsai collection, how it started, and what makes a good Bonsai.

“The fulfillment is something that money cannot buy” were his words for this craft.

That is a horse, the other one is a tree.

From this angle, I really feel like I’m under the shelter of a tree.

All in all, it was a rather personal time with him. I pray the best of life and more years for Ninong Danny.
