Pull: Whereabouts

Second entry contemplating Pull: Questions, as posed earlier this week.

If we could go anywhere -- assuming that all Offspring and pets were well taken care of, and that time and money were no object -- where would we go?  

We would visit the Sequoias.  Beautiful woods, quiet forest.  A landscape in which a centaur would not be out of place.  We would spend days hiking, small and insignificant, among the tremendous towering trees. 

We would go to Iceland.  We would marvel at the glaciers and at the volcanic activity, and sit in the geothermal spas.  

We would seek out environments different from this desert land:  we would sit by the ocean; contemplate the vistas from mountaintops; watch a storm move over the plains.  We would climb through caves. We would cross-country ski through the white silence of snow.  

We would experience the wind and the sun and the dark and the wet and the dry and the cold and the heat, each unique to that particular place and time.  

Someday, we will do all these things.
