I don't know if you've ever been there, but it sounds very similiar. What stands out in my memory most of all, is the fabulous array of ancient, twisted tree roots.

You DO have talent. Do you have this painting framed and hanging in your home, Dave?<br /><br />And you wrote about the rock walk with such detail.
