## Caption

You’ve never seen a forest like this. 🥫🌲

Along Route 66, Elmer’s Bottle Tree Ranch is a stretch of desert filled with bottle-covered trees made from old pipes, welded metal, and whatever else Elmer could find. Everywhere you look, there’s something unexpected—a typewriter, a hubcap, a sign pointing nowhere.

No tickets, no crowds, just art, sky, and desert wind that turns it all into a giant wind chime. 🎨🔔
