It's a high mountain desert (clearly different from the flatlands you are describing). There are mountains and rivers, but the vegetation is fighting cold and a rain shadow and seems quite restrained. When we went back to Portland to visit my parents, I felt like all that greenery was trying to smother me--too many ferns, too tall trees, ivy all over the place!<br />I now appreciate the virtues of each landscape, and live again in the rampant growth of Portland, but I do miss that bracing, wide-open territory of the big sky.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12448915588546829312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-89490146604315878082018-01-03T21:37:30.166+00:002018-01-03T21:37:30.166+00:00Wide open spaces - I love them!
