After hours and hours of driving in a yellow and blue surrounding, suddenly out of nothing arose an extreme colourful sugar pie covered with love flowers. The cherry on this huge pie is a big white cross, looking over the land below as a protective warrior.
Leonard Knight has worked over 50 years to shape his sugar pie with which he is communicating his message of love. After returning from the Korean war Knight had a visit of God, whom chose Knight to spread the word of love, and cover the world with love-sugar pies-.
His main diet is instant noodles, supplemented with whatever other people have brought him. The paint he uses are gifts too. For his other materials he takes his sugar pied small Toyota and brings back (truck) tires, to make trees out of. The trees, according to Knight, find their strength after he has made a couple of hundred flowers in them.
Just since a view years Knights sugar pie is spreading the word of love on the world wide web. Ever since he has been giving daily tours to hundreds of people. Or maybe a bit less, since he doesn’t seem to remember you once you’ve exited his vision and re-enter it after just going up his yellow paved road on his salvaged mountain. He blames his failing memory on the hundreds of people coming everyday.
You don’t need to be either a true believer or converted to be filled with love after riding back from Salvation Mountain into the same though completely different blue and yellow world.
