Re: idle minds....
Lots of trees and rocks to get above for me to see that far.

As dramatic as those views are - I visited my sis in law twice in Wash State, and I couldn't wait to get back to the open vistas which I enjoy in Ohio.relic wrote:Lots of trees and rocks to get above for me to see that far.
I guess folks can get used to being confined by forrests.

Re: idle minds....
I know what you are saying Fish. Spent some time in the prairies and felt like a "fish" out of water.
Never felt confined but curious that's why I enjoy your and Old Grinners photos-
they give me a different perspective.

I live in Wa State- Western Side or Wet Side for the locals around here, I also find the forest and all the green trees as tall as office buildings to be confining and restrictive feeling. The best scenery to me in life are the wide open spaces in the Middle of New Mexico. Most beautiful place in the world for me.

Re: idle minds....
I think everyone has a favorite place in their mind. Realities may be different but that is why we go on vacations. I have been one of the fortunate few who have seen 49 of the 50 states plus many other places in this world. (...and I have a brother who lives in Canada that I visit as well.) There are some really beautiful States in the United States...and Canada is beautiful as well.
I even lived in west Texas, close enough to New Mexico that I rode there every weekend. It may look nice for an outsider who is visiting it, like some writers who have vacation homes in Santa Fe, but to most of us it is a wide expanse with nothing and no one. I rode my bike from Carlsbad, New Mexico up to Albuquerque and Santa Fe. I worried about flat tires and mechanical problems the entire ride, mainly because there isn't/wasn't even a gas station on the road that went that direction. I hope that things have improved. It was a lonely ride.
