It is just that I have an inner knowing there, my feet automatically follow old kangaroo trails and the first time we were there I knew exactly what we would see when we climbed the hill. I was so at one with the landscape I felt that at some long ago time I had actually been a kangaroo there. I'm not even a native Australian, which makes it even more strange. I have met a number of places where I was at one with the very earth of the place even though I had never been there before. <br />Your place is so lovely and the sound and sight of the see alone is balm to the soul.Arijahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03720793296992474762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1530726217448856252.post-77473297623690086952011-09-04T02:09:56.083-04:002011-09-04T02:09:56.083-04:00Nice writing Patrick, I'll have to make a trip...Nice writing Patrick, I'll have to make a trip down there soon...Anh Le-Tuan Phamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15048452998942389566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1530726217448856252.post-57282656333711857412011-09-02T06:55:41.329-04:002011-09-02T06:55:41.329-04:00Nice Pat, Way to get your Henry David Thoreau on! ...Nice Pat, Way to get your Henry David Thoreau on! Truly a post that needed no pictures, I could feel you walking the land in your imagination. For those of us who have enjoyed your picture taking these many months, no explanation of it's hold on you is necessary. I think your comparison of a long standing relationship with a lover and a landscape is inspired. Your "aw shucks" self portrait with the ocean breaking in the background on your first day at Point Reyes really shows the power of love at first sight. It's wonderful your wife understands!Springmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09094132506583563094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1530726217448856252.post-34504982404467193692011-08-30T09:51:17.663-04:002011-08-30T09:51:17.663-04:00Pat, I really enjoyed reading this post (and the m...Pat, I really enjoyed reading this post (and the many others that preceded it). Point Reyes has made a lasting impression on you. You'll find another special place -- maybe Cape Cod National Seashore.
