california is the prettiest state in the union. here in california we have the ocean and the ceaseless pounding of the its waves. along its shores are protected by its redwood soldiers. to be dwarfed by these huge tall trees leaves one speechless. inland we have the two great valleys, the best growing region america, whose produce feeds most of this nation with the finest fruits and vegetables. like candy, sweet like candy. going east you have the sierra's with its unique granite and pure flowing water. snow, hunting fishing, hiking, climbing, it's all there to enjoy. the desert is very special---------late winter maybe early spring, catch it right and you'll wake up one morning with miles and miles full of color from blossoming flowers after a fresh rain. and the quietness is religion. all you hear is the wind and yourself, peaceful. miles of walking on slickrock letting your imagination take you where it may. california has so much variety, natural, cultural, and historical interests. and last and not lest------the frecking people. some you'll like, some you won't, and others you won't care about. but that's calfornia. joni know what she was talking about when she was homesick and wrote the song "california." sorry if i sound like a travel guide, but take out politics and california is for me and maybe a jonifest. later gene ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kate Bennett" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, March 15, 2002 9:27 PM Subject: Me too!, njc
