Guest guest Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 I really miss being able to hear the sound of waves on the beach. I recall a trip to San Francisco and driving over to Oakland to see the huge ships in the Pacific. I could not get over the energy that could be harnessed from all the powerful waves that were coming from the Pacific Ocean. It was truly a awesome experience. Even the trees near the ocean are affected from the tides. They grow differently at an angle due to the heavy gravitational pull from the ocean the tides and the moon. It is truly a sight to see. The farther you get away from the ocean this trend diminishes. And all the trees tend to look like Bonsai! It was a trip driving through China Town and seeing all of these trees that look like Bonsai's due to the affects from nature. I miss being able to hear the ocean, a waterfall and even a slow Homemedic trinkle of water over a rock garden. But at least I can smell it and see it huh? Anyone ever been to Oakland, California and had a chance to visit the ocean to see what I am talking about? I had a similar experience in Seattle, but it was not as pronounced and impacting as it was in Oakland. I guess I was too focused on them cherries from Mt Ranier. Man are they tasty. Expensive yes, but tasty. Hey Matt, how bout some cherries and Salmon from Seattle my good ole friend? The best salmon I have ever tasted was from a restaurant in Seattle. And we know about those cherries don't we? The cherries can sell for as much as 8.99 per pound her. What does it cost per pound in Seattle.
