Loving cities and loving nature are not mutually exclusive feelings. I'll go get lost in the desert for a days on end and then take a Starbucks Tour Across The State two weeks later, who cares.

Some pics of my current hometown, Port Alberni.

On our way down to the quay.

Mt. Arrowsmith overlooking the town.

Comox Glacier in the background.

its trees and water people ... trees and water

Yeah, isn't it beautiful?!

ok, now those first 3 pics were great ...

and yeah, I am with erik

 

[cthulufhtagn]

ok, I love you all and some of you are going to take this the wrong way ... ... but all those gazillion shots of nature posted on this forum ...

its trees and water people ... trees and water

if you're trying to say it's infinitely better in person then i agree completely...i see what you mean, there's only a certain number of photos you can take of rivers, trees, mountains, etc. but every place is a different when experienced in person

Despite the nagging, a few impressions from our West Coast trip:

ghostlike trees (picture taken from car)

Kennedy River

Long Beach in the fog

kelp at Long Beach

trees in the fog near Wickaninnish Beach

view from Radar Hill

view from different lookout on Radar Hill... fog rolling in from the sea

[Erik]

especially the fog ones are really cool

 

[KILL TULLY]

meh, cityfolks just don't quite get it

you see "generic trees and water and rocks"

we see the differences and that every view is different and special to those who truly enjoy nature.

*shrug*

it's all good

This post literally fucking infuriated me.

Seriously, 'city folks don't quite get it ' could possibly be one of the most fucking stupid things I've ever read.

YES NEW YORK BOSTON AND OTHER PLACES ARE SOOOOOOOO FAR AWAY FROM THE WILDERNESS, all we see is buildings and black people all day long mixed in with trading gold with Jews on Wallstreet and burning down oldgrowth forests and going to Church. Suck my cock.

(not you lizard, unless you wanna shnuckums.)



PS: ' ' doesn't make it less gay, because you really do meen it.

Yeah I much prefer living in the city and being 45 minutes from the middle of nothingness as opposed to the other way around. Maybe when I'm 64 I'd rather live in a yurt somewhere.

I was joking somewhat, to each their own...but I know there is a power in a forest that a row of tall buildings cannot match.

depends what type of power you are trying to channel

Without trying to get all cosmic anti, a forest is a living entity with multiple layers and varieties of life: a city has energy but it's all hyperactivity. It's like comparing weed to speed.
