Not to many woods out West. We have forests in the mountains, but the Bosque near the river is the closest thing we have to woods.

I would miss the forest but I would love to go west for another visit. Next time I want to go Yosemite.

Yosemite is beautiful, but like most national parks, don't go in the summer because of the crowds. Sequoia is gorgeous, too. But so is Zion, and Bryce, and the Grand Canyon.

We had a blast going to Yellowstone a few years ago - stayed there for a week in 3 different lodges in different sections of the park. Amazing place.

Umm yes, I am a card carrying National Parks Junkie.

We hike, backpack, kayak, etc a lot here and I love it but the west is like a different planet for me.

Those purple elephants are gorgeous! What are they?

Not that I'd have anywhere near the right conditions to grow them, mind...

Come visit here! Our trees are bigger

And it rarely even frosts here.

I could handle the PNW as long as I was on the back side of the mountains. On the coastal side it's not bitter cold, it's just damp, dreary, drizzly and gray a lot of the time. Keeps things incredibly green though. (My parents are in NW Washinton)

I'm wired to run on sunshine, and if I didn't see the sun for a month straight, I'd be hanging from the rafters. That said, there are inland places up there that would be great for me,

I have to admit that it does get a bit gloomy...

A goodly chunk of my family's in the Willamette Valley, with some up in Washington. Wouldn't it be funny, if...? Though I don't think any of my family's where you are. Can't be sure, though, since I've pretty much always been the out-of-touch one.

Quote:
We can hear the sea lions when they really get going. Drives the dogs nuts, though, so I'm glad that the house does a good job of muffling

Quote:
Eh, sun's fine--certainly prettier than gray all the time. That said, some clouds make for a more interesting sky than unrelieved blue for months (unrelieved blue for a couple days is nice, though). Then again, the normal pattern for summer around here is blue sky=wind=cold, overcast=less cold.

No, y'see, she'd be visiting me, and stopping at your place on the way here and/or the way back

Huh, I thought I had more quotes after this

Listening to Mr. P doing soundchecks in the living room--singing "Testing the mic, testing the mic" to the tune of "Stairway to Heaven." Much funnier than it reads here...
