Took my son to Humboldt last week and rode a day or two.
Here's a few pics and poems:


"Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop like autumn leaves." - John Muir

"In the early mist, nights of contemplation, a million thistles flickered between the shadows and silvery light." -Julia Butterfly Hill

"Murmuring out of its myriad leaves,
Down from its lofty top, rising two hundred feet high,
Out of its stalwart trunk and limbs—out of its foot-thick bark,
That chant of the seasons and time—chant, not of the past only, but the future." - Walt Whitman

"Lands bathed in sweeter, rarer, healthier air—valleys and mountain cliffs;
The fields of Nature long prepared and fallow—the silent, cyclic chemistry" - Walt Whitman

"Farewell, my brethren,
Farewell, O earth and sky—farewell, ye neighboring waters;
My time has ended, my term has come." - Walt Whitman

"A tree is a tree - how many more do you need to look at." - Ronald Reagan,

How jealous am I??? The riding in my neck of the woods is nowhere near as awe inspiring.
